| This is the 17th-century church of St. Etienne du Mont, in Paris. Though I used to live just down the street from it and have been here many times, I never cease to be amazed by the intricate stone cutwork. There's a matching staircase on the other side. (On a 21st-century note, it's from the steps of this church that Owen Wilson time-traveled in Midnight in Paris.) [To see more churches from around the world, go here.] |

That is some serious stone cutwork. I had to check out the other side. It looks so much like interweaving Celtic art work, for example.
ReplyDeleteIt must be thrilling to see a place you know in a movie. But checking out Google maps I wondered if the film crew added the street lights to the downspouts.
Way to catch Woody out, TG! He loves Paris so much (and shows it so beautifully), they'd probably let him do anything . . . well, almost anything.
