Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Jardin des Plantes

New Caledonia Glasshouse (formerly The Mexican Hothouse), 1830s, Charles Rohault de Fleury, Jardin des Plantes, Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris, France. Low angle view through the decorative glass and metal doors showing workers putting old paving stones into position. These will be covered with soil to form a drainage system. The scene is lit by the morning sunshine which catches the clouds of dust raised by the work. The New Caledonia Glasshouse, or Hothouse, was the first French glass and iron building.
