The Old Gate of the Palais de Justice, Paris
An etching in a circular vignette shows a Gothic gateway with two turreted towers capped by conical spires, a central gable and a pointed arched doorway. A bird with spread wings perches above a scroll, and radiating hatched lines fill the sky behind the building.
