And also seemingly they put the worst possible version of the photo? Wikipedia has much better versions on the right-hand side: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boulevard_du_Temple_(photograp...

Why not pay for it then?

For the record this is the actual photo discussed in the article

Since they neglect to show you the full, actual photo.

Why TF would they not show the original??!

Very interesting to see what the streets of a city looked like 200 years ago
