Strand Notes

(Photography at the Musee D'Orsay series). The construction of the Eiffel Tower right in the center of Paris for the Universal Exhibition of 1889 soon made it clear that photography was an appropriate medium for representing metal buildings. From January 28, 1887, when the foundation stone was laid, until March 31, 1889, when the flag was hoisted on the lightning rod at the top, the tower was photographed over and over again. Illus., 62 photographs.
