This print shows a color view of a building from the early 1800s. It uses flat color blocks and sharp outlines to show the shape and details of the structure. The print is titled “Vue du L'Odeon,” so it is a view of the Odeon Theatre in Paris. This kind of sheet was made to hang on walls or slip into books. Look next at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
