	The Construction of the Paris Opera: Photographs of Delmaet & Durandelle
		Photomuse. «Initiated as part of the sweeping renovation of central Paris begun by Baron Georges-Eugene Haussmann in the 1850s, the Opera was meant to showcase the wealth and power of Napoleon III's Second Empire. Public interest in the project was kindled when the design competition was won in 1861 by a relatively unknown young architect of humble social background, Charles Garnier (1825-98). Garnier drew up plans for an immense, flamboyant structure covering three acres and spanning 17 stories, seven of them underground. He conceived the Opera as a total work of art--a space for the ultimate encounter of architecture, sculpture, painting, music and dance. Over 90 prominent painters and sculptors eventually contributed to its lavish decoration program.» Francia
