- Abstract
- A bird's eye view of the Seine from the Ile de la Cité.
- Note
- This book is part of a bequest by Andrew Warren, class of 1895, who wrote the
following on the title page, after his name: "Paris, Oct. 27, 1894." It is probable that
this is the date at which he purchased the book. However, the first edition of the book
dates probably from 1890 or before, as the book review from Sept. 12, 1890 in the New York
Times, seems to demonstrate.

- Auguste Vitu started his professional life as a printer's devil, before being noted by a
philanthropist who put him through school and offered him a job in the Tax Revenue
administration. He gave up that job to work as a journalist, starting in 1842. At the time
of his death due to illness in 1891, he worked as the dramatic critic for the Figaro, a
French newspaper.
