Eiffel's Tower |
-- On March 31, 1889, the flag was hoisted to the top of the Eiffel Tower. It was built as the centerpiece for the Exposition Universelle, or World's Fair, held in Paris to mark the centenary of the French Revolution. Originally painted a deep red, it is thought to be more protective against rust. It has since been repainted 19 times, approximately every seven years, and its color has changed from red-brown to yellow ochre to chestnut brown. Today, it is a bronze Eiffel Tower Brown.

-- In this first general history of the Eiffel Tower in English, Jill Jonnes - acclaimed author of Conquering Gotham - offers an eye-opening look not only at the construction of one of the modern world's most iconic structures but also at the epochal event that surrounded its arrival as a wonder of the world. In this marvelously entertaining portrait of Belle Époque France, fear and loathing over Eiffel's brash design share the spotlight with the celebrities who made the 1889 Exposition Universelle an event to remember - including Buffalo Bill and his sharpshooter Annie Oakley, Thomas Edison, and artists Whistler, Gauguin, and van Gogh. Eiffel's Tower is a richly textured portrait of an era at the dawn of modernity, reveling in the limitless promise of the future.
The Tallest Tower: Eiffel and the Belle Epoque
-- The Paris Universal Exposition of 1889 marked both the centennial of the French Revolution and France's recovery from the humiliating defeat of the Franco-Prussian War. Gustave Eiffel's thousand-foot tower celebrated both those events. But the tower was a stunning accomplishment in its own right, the tallest structure made by man. It was as provocative as it was ambitious. Richly illustrated with historical documents, this is a fascinating look at the tower and the rich socio-economic context, making it a symbol of the Belle Epoque.
