Summary "Projet de restauration de Notre-Dame de Paris" by Lassus and Viollet-le-Duc is an architectural report written in the mid-19th century. The book serves as a formal proposal directed to the Minister of Justice and Religious Affairs regarding the restoration of the venerable Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris. Its central topic revolves around the principles and methods of restoring historical buildings, addressing the delicate balance between preservation and renewal in the context of Gothic architecture. In this comprehensive report, Lassus and Viollet-le-Duc outline the necessity of restoring Notre-Dame to its former glory while retaining its historical significance. They emphasize the importance of understanding the original architectural intentions and materials used in the cathedral's construction. Deliberating on past restorations and modifications made over the centuries, the authors provide a detailed examination of the alterations that detracted from the building's integrity. The text advocates for a restoration that respects the edifice's authentic character, proposing careful restoration techniques that avoid introducing modern elements that could disrupt the cathedral's historical narrative and aesthetic. Throughout their discussion, they highlight the significance of archaeological research, historical documentation, and careful craftsmanship in achieving a faithful restoration, ensuring that Notre-Dame remains a monument of cultural and artistic value for future generations.
