    Full Description

    Built for the 1889 Universal Exhibition, the Eiffel Tower has become the undisputed symbol of France and one of the most famous monuments in the world. This book traces the extraordinary story of its design and construction, a titanic undertaking in the very heart of Paris. Through a selection of vintage and contemporary photographs, it reveals the history of the Iron Lady, her international renown, and the influence she has had on the artists and creators she has inspired. Endlessly reinvented, the Eiffel Tower has also given rise to numerous replicas around the world.

    Written by Guillaume Morel, journalist and author, this book offers an elegant and carefully crafted introduction to one of the greatest emblems of France’s heritage.
