Les curiositez de Paris, de Versailles, de Marly, de Vincennes, de S. Cloud, et des environs : avec les adresses pour trouver facilement tout ce qu'ils renferment d'agréable & d'utile : ouvrage enrichi d'un grand nombre de figures
A guidebook to Paris and its surrounding palaces and gardens, compiled by Georges-Louis Le Rouge and published in Paris in 1716 for travellers and visitors seeking the city's sights and useful addresses. Its woodcut views show façades, courtyards and gateways in architectural detail, giving designers a record of early eighteenth-century French classical building: rhythmic window bays, steep mansard roofs, paired pilasters, and a pedimented triumphal arch with sculpted figures.
