Ancien couvent de l’Assomption, rue Cambon. 1898. Albumen print. 17,7 x 22,2 cm. Titled "Couvent de l’Assomption, rue Cambon" and numbered "3580" in pencil on the verso; further pencil annotation "46".

Atget photographed the former Couvent des Filles-de-l’Assomption, on rue Cambon, shortly before its demolition in 1898. The keenly captured architecture is animated by the news kiosk, pasted notices, a pedestrian and horse-drawn carriage, joining documentary precision with a strong sense of the city’s passing street life. Prints of this view are held by the Musée d’Orsay, Paris, and the Musée Carnavalet, Paris.
