Spectacular A.I. enhanced and colorized footage of old Paris nearly 110 years ago. The film shows what Paris was like approximately a decade before the motor car arrived on its streets. We see many famous points of interest like bridges across the river Seine, The Opera, Place de la Concorde, the Dome des Invalides with the monumental grave of Napolean, the Sacre Coeur, the Notre Dame and much more.
For more details please refer to the timeline below.

The original rather poor quality B&W film has been motion-stabilized, nearly halved in speed, interpolated, de-noised, de-flickered, restored, enhanced and colorized by means of modern video software that is based on the use of Artificial Intelligence.

Remastered footage originally from 1919 taken in Paris. It shows the Arc de Triomphe, bridges, the Luxemburg museum and gardens, the Eiffel Tower, palaces, and the Hall of Mirrors and gardens at Versailles. Further, we see English wrestlers and U.S. Labor Commission delegates pose at Napoleon's tomb.
