I live very near this arch that reminds me so much of Paris (not a coincidence). It's the Soldiers' and Sailors' Arch, built about 30 years after the Civil War as a tribute to "the defenders of the Union." [It's Mellow Yellow Monday. To see more, go here.] |
How appropriate then that the colors red, white, and blue pertain to both the American and French flags.
ReplyDeleteIf that is green on the left we can add the Italian flag colors. And yellow? With the red and blue we have the colors in the Ecuadorian flag!
Coincidence?
I don't think I've ever seen this - I must visit!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty lit up at night, and I think very impressive in the daytime.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
