The Clock Tower ca. 1852 Charles Meryon French Meryon was the first nineteenth-century French etcher to make the Parisian cityscape his primary focus. This is one of several preparatory drawings that he made for an etching of the same title, as part of his suite of twenty-two prints entitled "Eaux-fortes sur Paris" (Etchings on Paris). With a precise graphite line, Meryon recorded the main architectural features of the Palais de Justice with its clock tower as well as the Conciergerie behind; both buildings are part of the complex of law courts at the center of Paris. He omitted anecdotal details, but the inscription at the top of the sheet describes the barge that later appeared in the etching.. The Clock Tower 337763
