| Summary: | A steel line engraving of the front of L'Eglise de L'Oratoire, Paris, facing the rue Saint-Honoré [formerly the Eglise Réformée de l'Oratoire du Louvre but also known as the Temple Protestant de l'Oratoire du Louvre], drawn by T.T. Bury under Augustus Pugin, steel engraving by John Romney. Formerly the royal chapel of the Louvre Palace, in 1792 during the French Revolution the church was suppressed; in 1811 Napoleon gave it to the Protestant congregation of Saint-Louis-du-Louvre. This print is from a series that was published by Robert Jennings, Poultry, London in 1829 under the title "Paris & its' Environs, Displayed in a Series of Two Hundred Picturesque Views, from Original Drawings, Taken under the Direction of A. Pugin, Esq. The Engravings Executed Under the Superintendence of Mr. C. Heath". |
