(en) Photographer Albert Levy. American Architects catalogue of the XIX century

The photographer Albert Levy was one of the few photographers to have a catalogue with all his pictures until 1887. This catalogue included also all the American Architects that built the houses of the pictures he took before 1887.

The best american architects of the XIX century are included in this list. They built the best houses of their time. Many of them still standing. So, the "Albert Levy's photographic architectural series" are the best one to see images of American Architecture of the XIX centure (including Victorian Architecture).

The full catalogue can be seen in the Bibliotheque Nacionale de France (BnF), in the Gallica project in the link below.
