Maria, I am just balancing between your option and that of our colleague Neto J. I'm going to post my question again but this time insisting on the precise meaning of "clin d'oeil" in my corpus, and not "coup d'oeil", because I am afraid there is some misunderstanding about this phrase. The meaning is not that of "glance" or "review" , but that of "veiled message". In addition "(en un )clin d'oeil " may also mean "in a flash ", which is not the case in my document.

Um olhar pela História

My comment:

Si le contexte est historique, il me semble que "um olhar" sera le terme le plus approprié.
