The New Gardens and Palace of the Tuileries, and the New and Old Louvre, 1858. Creator: Unknown
The New Gardens and Palace of the Tuileries, and the New and Old Louvre, 1858. Harmonisation of the Tuileries and the new Louvre in Paris. The necessity of the change will be seen by a glance at the two palaces, where the elegance, richness, and elevation of the one contrast strangely with the imperfections, crudeness, and awkward appearance of the other...strikingly exhibiting incongruities resulting from the different and anomalous styles of architecture...Under Louis XV. the wall of the Louvre situated at the end of the grounds was destroyed, and replaced by a bridge...A new bridge, in course of construction, will facilitate the approach to the new entrance for the inhabitants residing on the left bank of the river. The private flower-beds now extend to the ornamental water, near the shrubbery, from which abuts a magnificent avenue in a line with the Pavilion de l'Horloge...Our Engraving represents not only the Gardens but the Palace of the Tuileries, the Place du Carousel, and the Old and New Louvre, the pavilions of which stand out in monumental grandeur. These are, on the right, the Pavilions Moliere, Denon, and Darm; the left, those of Turgot, Richelieu, and Colbert; and that at the back of the Old Louvre the Pavilion Sully'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858
