12 planches numérotées de 28 x 40 cm) sous chemise illustrée de l'éditeur. Suite complète des 12 eaux-fortes gravées par Martial montées sur Chine. « Paris est le grand sujet d?Adolphe Martial Potémont, dit Martial. On y devine déjà deux notes personnelles : la nostalgie et un rapport intime à cette ville où il est né en 1828, où il a passé sa vie ? à l?exception d?un séjour à La Réunion de 1847 à 1857 ?, où il est mort en 1883. Martial a été l?élève de Léon Cogniet et de Félix Brissot de Warville, pour apprendre l?art du paysage urbain qui fut sa spécialité. Il débute la gravure vers 1840 et son premier succès dans ce domaine arrive en 1864 avec la publication des trois cents eaux-fortes qui constituent L'Ancien Paris . Toutefois, la qualité du travail n?est pas négligée et on trouve sévère aujourd?hui le propos de Beraldi à son sujet, qui déclare: «comme exécutant, rien de particulier à en dire ». Martial a été membre de la Société des aquafortistes en 1862 et fait partie des artistes édités par Alfred Cadart, gage d?un talent reconnu. Il pousse même la virtuosité jusqu?à graver ses propres textes dans les notes qui accompagnent les gravures. Sa maîtrise de l?eau-forte le conduit à rédiger un Traité sur la gravure à l'eau-forte pour les peintres et dessinateurs publié par le même Cadart en 1873. Bel exemplaire, sans rousseur.

In this early stage photographs could only be reproduced for mass production by means of wood-engravings or engravings on copper or steel. A few years after these turbulent years in the history of Paris new reproduction methods such as photo engraving and zincography made obsolete this beautiful but expensive method . These suites will remain a beautiful and poignant visual testimony of Paris history in the 19th c.
