View of the Sorbonne church in Paris, with a statue of Auguste Comte in the foreground. The printed text indicates the history of the Sorbonne: founded in 1253, rebuilt in 1629 under Richelieu, and its relocation to the Faculty of Letters in 1808. The dome is decorated by Philippe de Champaigne. The reverse side bears the publisher's address: A. Vague, Édit. Paris.
