The shadows appear to be the photographer himself and his camera. Scan is a bit cropped at the top, because the image would not quite fit. Baldus apparently made 13 negatives of this area to fulfill a commission from the prefect to document buildings slated for destruction during the rebuilding of the quays. He also added at least one view from his inventory of negatives. This print has received treatment by Patrick LaMotte at the Bibliotheque Nationale.
