The series records the elegant shopfronts of Napoleonic Paris, drawn from designs of the early 1800s. This one, plate 29, shows the façade of a gunsmith’s shop at No. 251 rue Saint-Honoré, with\u003cspan class=\"apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eFabrique d’Armes\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan class=\"apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003elettered in gold across the frieze. Three arched doors of golden faux wood are crossed with green saltire panels and topped by a pediment carved with trophies of arms. They are flanked by windows over oxblood faux marble and framed by pillars painted to look like verde antico. The colors were applied by hand with stencils, a technique called pochoir that gives the plates their soft, painterly finish. It is set in a gilt frame with carved scroll corners, and it is lovely in a study, a library, or hung with other architectural prints.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eTitle: Façade d’une boutique d’Armurier, rue St. Honoré, No. 251\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003ePublisher: Éditions Albert Morancé, Paris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSeries: Boutiques Parisiennes du Premier Empire, plate 29\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAge: Early 20th century\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eMedium: Print with hand-applied pochoir color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDetails: Empire shopfront with arched doors, pediment of trophies, faux marble and faux wood finishes; gilt frame with carved scroll corners, glazed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDimensions: 12.5\"W × 10.5\"H \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition: Good condition with light toning to the paper, and small wear to the gilt on the frame\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Célani Home","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53710452064568,"sku":null,"price":410.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0915\/3462\/3032\/files\/FB3A0758_18bbccec-7777-4717-a44c-75c839b01316.jpg?v=1793563076","url":"https:\/\/www.celanihome.com\/products\/boutiques-parisiennes-du-premier-empire-gunsmith-s-shop-facade","provider":"Célani Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
