The photograph showcases the soaring Gothic heights of the choir and transept, which are famously the tallest in the world. The intricate stonework, flying buttresses, and the massive rose window are captured in exceptional detail, providing a window into the majesty of this architectural landmark as it stood over a century ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEra: Divided Back (Circa 1905–1915)\u003cbr\u003eCity: Beauvais\u003cbr\u003eState or Region: Oise, Picardy\u003cbr\u003eCountry: France\u003cbr\u003eTopic: Gothic architecture, French cathedrals, historic monuments, religious heritage, Beauvais history\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Uncirculated\u003cbr\u003ePostage: Unused\u003cbr\u003eAddress Side: Divided back\u003cbr\u003eOrientation: Horizontal (Landscape)\u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ Photographer: Leon \u0026amp; Levy (LL)\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Leon \u0026amp; Levy\u003cbr\u003ePrinter: Not listed\u003cbr\u003ePrint Type: Collotype, Phototype\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdentified by the \"LL\" mark and numbered 22, this card was produced by the prestigious Leon \u0026amp; Levy studio in Paris. Regarding the date, the specific wooden scaffolding shown on the south transept and choir exterior is characteristic of the major consolidation works undertaken between 1900 and 1910. These efforts were led by chief architect Henri-Louis-Désiré Daumet and later Paul Boeswillwald to address structural instabilities that have plagued the cathedral since the middle ages. Because this card features a divided back but lacks the later \"Select\" or \"Brevete\" marks often seen on 1910-1920 editions, it most likely captures the work being done around 1905–1908.\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":46727850098877,"sku":"2866","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/4818\/1181\/files\/2866.jpg?v=1777649377","url":"https:\/\/www.getluckyvintage.com\/products\/2866","provider":"Get Lucky Vintage ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
