This is an antique card of a river scene along the Seine River in Paris, Ile-de-France, France.  There is a, what looks like a retired excursion boat, turned café, that sells “Suchard Chocolate” and “St. Raphael Cinchona Water” tied up on the shore.  All below the Aurteruil Viaduct which was constructed in the 1860s.  The bridge was a masonry “Vaulted Arch Bridge” that crossed the Seine River.  Its total length was 574 ft. long with 5 arched spans of 99 ft.  The Auteruil was both a road and a railroad bridge and was demolished in 1962, replaced by the “Garigliano Bridge” in 1966.  structure.net   

    It is, however, still on this card, published “BF, Paris”.  There is no date on the card, but it looks to be early 1900s and is in good condition with minor wear and clean, clear image and reverse.               


The colors on the card may vary due to the scanner settings and screen projections.
Unless otherwise noted, I use Wikipedia, Playle's and Metropostcard for research and try to be as accurate as possible.  Corrections appreciated.
