Description
View of the north side of Nidaros Cathedral, a medieval building located in Trondheim, Norway. The cathedral suffered severe damage over time and this drawing shows the transept, chancel, and apse, which were the only parts to be still standing in the mid-nineteenth century. The nave in particular had been destroyed and wasn’t rebuilt until the early twentieth century.
The caption reads in the original French: Cathédrale de Drontheim, côté nord. Norvège.
