Notes: Paul Dubois (1829-1905) was an eminent French sculptor and painter who succeeded Guillaume as director of the Ecole Des Beaux Arts. Trained as a painter and an illustrator, Marville began photographing in 1851, and in 1862 he was named "photographer of the city of Paris." In the service of Napoleon III, he photographed Baron Haussmann's vast program of demolition and construction in Paris. Although he also photographed the modern city that replaced old Paris, he is best known for his documents of the picturesque and insalubrious districts slated for destruction.
