Périgueux. The Tournepiche Bridge, upstream side

Édouard Baldus

Cleveland Museum of Art

Sepia-toned photograph of a stone bridge with three arches over a river. The bridge has a flat top with a low wall on either side. A town with buildings and trees is in the background. The sky is overexposed and appears white. The river is calm and reflects the bridge and sky. The buildings on the left side have flat roofs and appear to be several stories tall. Some have shutters on the windows. A sign on one building reads "DE RIVIERE". The bridge and buildings appear old. The photograph is taken from the side of the bridge.
