Summary

Description
Français : Lyon. « La Veue de Lion descendat par la Saosne » (« La vue de Lyon descendant par la Saône »), détail. Gravure par Israël Sylvestre, 1649-1650. Musée historique de la ville de Lyon, n° d'inv. 3383.7.

Vue depuis la rive droite, vers l'aval de la Saône, avec en rive droite (au fond) le quai Pierre Scize (noter le grand nombre de maisons bâties au raz de la rivière). En rive gauche, entre le couvent Ste-Marie-des-Chaînes (E) et le fort Saint-Jean (vu en partie contre le bord gauche de l'image), seules quelques maisons bordent la voie qui longe la rive. Le Grenier d'abondance n'est construit que dans les années 1720.

Les bateaux reliés en travers de la Saône soutiennent l'une des chaînes qui barrent la rivière contre les incursions de malfaiteurs. Celle-ci est appelée "sainte-Marie-aux-Chaînes". Elle relie le fort Saint-Jean au pied du château de Pierre Scise et a donné son nom au couvent mentionné plus haut. L'autre chaîne est la chaîne de Saint-George, plus haut sur la rivière.

The author died in 1650, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1930.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
