In this original work by Lotza, the majestic Place de la Bourse in Bordeaux is revealed to you in all its splendor. Located on the banks of the Garonne River, in the heart of the historic center, this iconic square embodies the elegance of Bordeaux's neoclassical architecture. Designed in the 18th century by architect Jacques-François Blondel, it was one of the first urban projects to open the city to its river, a symbol of prosperity and trade.
Framed by the symmetrical buildings of the former Bourse de Commerce and the Palais Rohan, the square exudes remarkable harmony. At its center stands the Fontaine des Trois Grâces, a popular meeting place for the locals. A few steps away, the cobblestones lead to the quays and the famous water mirror, which reflects the square and the sky in a fascinating play of light. Today, the Place de la Bourse is the beating heart of Bordeaux, blending heritage, culture, and the art of living. Through this illustration, Lotza captures the soul of this unique square, a symbol of history and refinement.
