Paris, 1840. Trade card for an antique shop located on the Rue Saint-Lucie in the former commune of Grenelle, now part of the fifteenth arrondissement of Paris. In addition to antiques, the Magazin d’Antiquité et de Beaux-Arts offered modern objets d’art: marble carvings, engraved seashells and volcanic rock (“pierres du Vésuve”), models of ancient temples, copies of classical sculpture in bronze and terracotta. The decorative frieze above the card’s text depicts a neoclassical profusion of urns, statues, architectural ruins, and other “objets modernes de Beaux-arts.” An evocative survival. Engraved pictorial trade card, measuring 3 x 4.25 inches, mounted to a sheet of blue paper measuring 3.5 x 4.75 inches. Lightest signs of wear, one short closed tear. Matted to 6.75 x 8 inches.
