Tourelle, Rue de la Tixeranderie is a 1852 ink by Charles Meryon, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
Charles Meryon’s etching shows a Paris house by the river Seine. It’s one of many views he made before the building was torn down for Haussmann’s big street project. Buildings like this often vanish without a trace. But his prints let us see them again, down to the smallest brick. Check out more of his work at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
Charles Meryon (sometimes Méryon, 23 November 1821 – 14 February 1868) was a French artist who worked almost entirely in etching, as he had colour blindness.
