Additional Details:
The Eiffel Tower is depicted at night, bathed in spotlights that create strong light beams. In the foreground, a Bateau-Mouche style boat is visible on the Seine River, also illuminated, with reflections in the water. The postcard provides details on the Eiffel Tower's construction (1887-1889), height (320.755 m), weight (7 million kilos), rivet count (2.5 million), and stair steps (1,719). It also mentions the 'Vedettes Paris' boat service operating on the Seine, departing from Pont de l'IƩna near the Eiffel Tower.
