1905 Halftone Print Hotel Frascati Havre Northern France Historical Perry Beach

This is an original 1905 black and white halftone print of the famous Hôtel Frascati in Le Havre, France. It was originally designed as a strategic military facility, located near the beach to enable a clear line of fire towards any incoming enemies. Although the entire building was damaged in a fire during 1900, it struggled along for the next half a decade, eventually closing its doors in 1906.
