98 Carl de Vinck (1859–19) – View of the Bastille, St. Anthony’s Gate and Part of the Suburbs of Paris – Etching (c.1750–1789)
This historical etching shows the Bastille fortress alongside St. Anthony’s Gate and the surrounding suburbs of Paris, capturing a pre-revolutionary view of the city. The composition includes the fortress’s imposing walls and towers, a prominent gateway, and numerous figures populating the foreground—pedestrians, carriages, and urban activity. The print is inscribed above and below the image: "View of the Bastile St. Anthony’s Gate and part of the Suburbs of Paris".
Though unsigned, the work is part of a series compiled and later collected by Carl de Vinck (1859–19), a noted French collector of prints and revolutionary-era iconography. The image was printed in London and likely issued anonymously by a publisher for educational or documentary purposes. The print measures 16 x 27 cm within the plate mark and dates from circa 1750 to 1789.
