"Tableau historique et pittoresque de Paris depuis les Gaulois jusqu'à nos jours" by J. B. de Saint-Victor is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This compendium illustrates the rich history and landmarks of Paris, tracing its evolution from Gaulish times to the then-present day. It likely serves as both a detailed narrative and a picturesque documentation of the French capital's development and significant events. The opening of the work sets the stage for a thorough exploration of Paris's historical quarter, specifically the area known as Saint Benoit, providing an analysis of its geographical boundaries and significant institutions during the year 1789. It introduces the political context of Louis XIII's reign and the complexities of governance during that period, highlighting events surrounding the assassination of Henri IV and the consequent power struggles. The passage reflects on the interplay between various factions, including the nobility and the emerging authority of the regent, notably emphasized through the accounts of the key players in the tumultuous political landscape of early 17th century France.
