109 Charles-Raphaël Maréchal (1818–1886) & Rouargue Frères – "Panoramic View of Liège" – Engraving (1857)
This steel engraving presents a panoramic view of the city of Liège, Belgium, as seen from the surrounding hills around 1850. The composition captures the Meuse River crossing the urban landscape through multiple bridges, with detailed renderings of church towers, industrial chimneys, and classical architecture. The view reflects the industrial transformation of Liège during the 19th century, coinciding with the rise of the textile industry in the region.
The drawing was created by Charles-Raphaël Maréchal, a French painter and inventor known for his panoramic city views, and the engraving was executed by the Rouargue brothers, who were renowned for their topographical and architectural engravings. This piece is part of the France Maritime collection, a prestigious series published in Paris that depicted major ports, cities, and industrial hubs across Europe.
