FROM THE REVOLUTION THROUGH THE JULY MONARCHY (1789-1848)

The revolutionary government confiscated property from the church and aristocrats that would be subdivided and developed in the 19^th century. When not fighting his many wars, Napoleon I improved the infrastructure of Paris and built triumphal arches, victory columns and temple-like porticoes emulating the architecture of imperial Rome.

About the Presenter: Russell Kelley, author of The Making of Paris, will give the fourth in a series of  lectures accompanied by over 100 images, focusing on the structures that can still be seen today.
