Combining two pictures taken in February and March 1889, this square, vertical composition takes us back to the heart of Paris during an era of architectural marvels. The first image reveals the Eiffel Tower in its early stages, as workers meticulously assemble its intricate framework against a backdrop of wintry skies.

It serves as a reminder that even monumental structures like the Eiffel Tower were once mere dreams materializing brick by brick. With each glance at "Fra-Eiffel Tower-Building" we are reminded that great achievements require perseverance and dedication – qualities embodied by both those who built it and those who continue to admire it today
