Famous for his mid-century paintings of America from his travels (such as Winter View of Broadway at Spring Street in New York from 1855, and Niagara Falls from the Canadian Side, circa 1852), Hippolyte Sebron was well known as a painter of detailed architectual scenes of French cathedrals, such as this large and impressive work.
