Information about the Basilique du Sacré-Cœur, Paris:
The Basilique du Sacré-Cœur, Paris, also known as Sacré-Cœur Basilica, is a Roman Catholic church, dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. It is situated promenently on the hilltop of Montmartre, the highest point on Paris. After some legal maneuvering, the city seized the land and work began in 1875. The architect was Paul Abadie, who was a notable restorer of many famous religious buildings in France. Although he died shortly after the foundation was laid, and the work was continued by several other architects, who carried on the work until the building was completed in 1914. Official dedication was put off until the end of World War I in 1919. The building is remarkable because of it's peculiar blending of architectural styles, such as Roman-Byzantine, along with many nationalistic themes, such as Joan of Arc and King Saint Louis IX who were both martyred. The church cost over 7 million francs, all of which were donated by private individuals and groups.The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:

Notre Dame Cathedral, France – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Notre Dame Cathedral:
Notre Dame de Paris (meaning Our Lady of Paris) is a large cathedral situated on the banks of the Seine River on the eastern part of the Île de la Cité in the fourth arrondissement. It is generally considered one of the best example of French gothic architecture in Europe. The groundbreaking is believed to have started in 1163, but the cathedral wasn't completed until 1345. The cathedral has gone through many difficult transitions over the years, including periods of neglect, occasionally even being used for such mundane tasks as housing livestock or for storage. The cathedral also suffered vandalism at the hands of radicals during the French revolution in the 1790s. Today, though, the buildings stands in it's original glory, thanks to an extensive and painstaking restoration supervised by the French architect Eugène Viollet-le-Duc. It is one of the most easily recognizable buildings in the world and one of the main tourist attractions in Paris. The profile of the cathedral was raised even higher when Victor Hugo wrote "The Hunchback of Notre Dame", published in 1831.The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:

The Paris Opera House, also called the Palais Garnier, is a large opera designed by architect Charles Garnier. The building is done in the architectural style of Beaux-Arts. The construction began in 1862 and was completed in 1875. The building was part of the great reconstruction period of the Second Empire under Emperor Napoleon III. There were many problems with the construction, not the least of which was the the site of the building was on swampy ground that needed to be constantly pumped out as the concrete foundation was laid. The construction was also hindered by the Franco-Prussian war. But despite the setbacks and political upheaval, the building was completed and dedicated in 1875. The style of the building was extremely influential, and many notable buildings - especially other opera houses - were heavily influenced by Garnier's remarkable vision. The legend of the storied building was furthered by the novel "The Phantom of the Opera" by Gaston Leroux.The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:
