Engraving showing the fire at the foire saint-germain on the night of 16 to 17 march 1762 (published in paris by jacques chereau, rue st. Jacques). The saint sulpice church is visible in the background, upper right. The gallica digital image has been modified: the engraving has been reversed left to right (so that saint sulpice is depicted in the correct location), the image has been converted to grayscale, and the black and white levels have been altered. Date: circa 1762?.
