Title
Vue générale des constructions du Champ-de-Mars et du Trocadéro
MM. Davioud et Bourdais, architectes du Palais du Trocadéro. M. Hardy, architecte du Palais du Champ-de-Mars
Description
Panoramic view of the 1878 World Fair site in Paris. Left of the image stands the Trocadéro palace, which had been designed specifically for the fair by the architects Davioud and Bourdais. The building had three parts: the monumental central rotunda served as a reception hall and concert hall which could contain about 5000 people. Two galleries on each side went from the rotunda to the outside of the building, and were inspired by St Peter's Piazza in Rome. The Palais was eventually damaged by a fire in 1935, and does not exist anymore today. On the other bank of the Seine River stands the "palais du Champ-de-Mars, which had also been built for the occasion, but which would be destroyed soon after the Fair. In 1889, the Eiffel Tower would be built on that site.
