General Topology, chapter I, § 4. Product of topological spaces

The projection of an open set UU of the product X1×X2X_1 \times X_2 onto either factor is an open set.

For example, we have pr2U=⋃x1∈X1U(x1)\mathrm{pr}_2 U = \bigcup_{x_1 \in X_1} U(x_1), and the proposition follows from the Corollary to Proposition 4 and axiom (O_1).

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
