Beautiful and important original etching by André Serveau depicting the famous Plan des anciennes enceintes de Paris, dated 1937.

Printed by the Lacourière workshops on Arches paper, this large-format print captivates with its rich composition. The map of Paris is surrounded by a remarkable allegorical decoration illustrating the different periods in the capital's history, with cartouches, figures, monuments and historical symbols.

The work is at once a historical document, a high-quality cartographic representation and a particularly elegant decorative element for a classic interior, library, office or collection devoted to Paris.
