The Eiffel Tower is a wrought-iron lattice tower on the Champ de Mars in Paris, France. It is named after the engineer Gustave Eiffel, whose company designed and built the tower. Locally nicknamed "La dame de fer", it was constructed from 1887 to 1889 as the centerpiece of the 1889 World's Fair
*Would make an Amazing Unique Vintage gift framed up nicely!****
Like almost everything else today, the humble postcard isn’t what it used to be. In early 20th-century Paris, for instance, a photographer known as Yvon, born Pierre Yves Petit, turned out simple postcards with scenic views of his city that today class him as a true flâneur d’entre-guerre Paris along with Eugène Atget, Brassaï and André Kertész.
Yvon launched his postcard business in order to take advantage of the increasing tourism in Paris, operating Éditions d’art d’Yvon from his family’s apartment in Neuilly-sur-Seine. He included his signature on his postcards, reflecting an early understanding of brand marketing. And he took his pictures early or late in the day when the sky was at its most dramatic, and his scenes would convey romantic, melancholic and even playful moods.
In many of Yvon’s images it is not uncommon to see landmarks such as Sacré Coeur or the Louvre looming in the background while life, often blurred, passes in the foreground. His postcards serve as mementos not only of the city’s buildings, gardens and monuments, but also of Paris’ celebrated street life
