{"product_id":"2836","title":"1914 Sacre-Coeur Basilica Montmartre Paris France Vintage Postcard","description":"\u003ch3\u003eAbout This Vintage Postcard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis striking postcard features a complete view of the Basilica of the Sacre-Coeur de Montmartre in Paris, including its famous 95-meter campanile. The French caption explicitly notes that the basilica is \"terminee\" (completed), a significant detail because construction spanned four decades. Perched on the highest point in the city, the Roman-Byzantine style church is built of a unique white stone that self-cleans with rainwater. This view captures the monument as a finished masterpiece of the Paris skyline just before the start of the Great War.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEra: Divided Back (Circa 1914-1919)\u003cbr\u003eCity: Paris State or Region: Ile-de-France\u003cbr\u003eCountry: France\u003cbr\u003eTopic: Sacre-Coeur, Montmartre, Paris Architecture, Basilica History, Catholic Church, French Landmark\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Uncirculated\u003cbr\u003ePostage: None\u003cbr\u003eAddress Side: Divided back\u003cbr\u003eOrientation: Horizontal (Landscape)\u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ Photographer: Levy Fils et Cie (LL)\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Levy Fils et Cie (LL), Paris\u003cbr\u003ePrinter: Likely French phototypie studio\u003cbr\u003ePrint Type: Black and White Phototypie (Collotype)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe back of this card is a classic example of a simple, unadorned divided back used by the Levy Fils et Cie firm for their vast topographical series. The mark LL on the front identifies the publisher, while the number 1825 helps place it within their massive production catalog. The mention of the 95-meter tower and the \"completed\" status helps date the photo to roughly 1914, when construction finally finished. The paper shows slight aging with minor pencil marks in the upper left corner from a previous collector or dealer. Like your other LL cards, this one features a microscopic organic grain pattern typical of a high-quality phototypie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLove it ♡\u003cbr\u003eGet it ☆\u003cbr\u003eGet Lucky 💋 Vintage\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Get Lucky Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46722754511037,"sku":"2836","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/4818\/1181\/files\/2836.jpg?v=1777507157","url":"https:\/\/www.getluckyvintage.com\/products\/2836","provider":"Get Lucky Vintage ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
