Before They Were the Eameses

Etching of Notre-Dame de Paris, Paris, France

Charles Eames

1929

Charles married his first wife, Catherine Dewey Woermann, in 1929. Their honeymoon took them on a tour of Europe to see classic and modern architecture across England, France, Belgium, and Germany. Charles recorded their travels in a series of sketches. He later turned some of these into etchings, including this image of Paris's famed cathedral.
