This interesting prospective view most likely prepared for a 'peep box'. "Vue Optique" Vue d'Optique or perspective view/optical view refers to a genre of etching popular during the second half of the 18th century and well into the 19th. Such 'Vues' were specifically developed to provide the illusion of depth when viewed through a zograscope also known as an "optical diagonal machine" or viewers with similar functions. Optical viewers were generally popular with well-to-do European families in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This print has the Publisher as 'A Paris chez Basset rue St Jacques 64' at the left hand side of the print under the main Title and "Dembour et Gangel editeurs a Metz Moselle.

Optical viewers were generally popular with well-to-do European families in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. What makes this particular image even more interesting is that I have found for sale by another dealer an ALMOST identical view BUT entitled 'Vue des Côtes de SIBERIE' View of the Coasts of Siberia there are some differences but the basic layout is the same but that print was published in Paris by Laurent Pierre La Chaussée but also undated. I am unable to ascertain the chronology of these two prints and whether one might be a 'pirated' version .

1700200060AG1700. Paris Jacques Chereau c.1700s. Original hand-coloured engraved vue d'optique. Plate Size: 39.3 cm x 28.5 cm. Sheet Size: 41.5 cm x 29.7 cm. Original print. In very good condition. Clean crisp and bright impression. A beautifully coloured vue d'optique of 18th Century Paris. A beautiful original hand-coloured copperplate engraving that shows a view of The Paris Observatory and the College des Jesuits on the left bank of the Seine. In the foreground people are shown out strolling and conversing. Below the printed area is the title and the following address of the publisher in French: "A Paris chez J. Chereau rue St. Jacques au dessus de la Fontaine St. Severin aux 2 Colonnes No. 257." Jacques Chéreau 1688 - 1776 was a portrait engraver printmaker and publisher of optical prints in a neighbourhood of printmakers at the Rue Saint-Jacques variously given on prints as "au Grand St. Remy" "au Coq" or "au dessus de la Fontaine St. Severin" in Paris France. From about 1740 to about 1820 optical prints also called "vue optique" or "vue d'optique" prints were made to be viewed through a Zograscope or other devices of convex lens and mirror all of which produced optical illusion of depth. Intaglio optical prints have exaggerated converging lines and bright hand-colours which contribute to the illusion of depth. Typically the legends of optical prints have reversed words along the top edge as those would be seen though the scope but words on the bottom of the prints are normal. Jacques and his brother were considered some of the most prolific publishers of prints in Paris. Subjects include current events views of the known world and fantasy compositions. Wikipedia unknown
