Paris bleu


A window box without flowers can
still delight with an angel and a dove.

bon weekend

    (I was glad to read that you consider Rodin as a Rascal!I agree on that point Ü)
    Sometimes, just to add a touch of colour makes it all!

    I agree totally Genie the colour and the playful scene make it a work of art in it's own right!! btw I'll save a spot for your yacht next to mine in the harbour haha!!

    Your little corners of Paris are delightful!
    About Alabama, I will not take your offer to visit seriously, but since we travel to the US every year we might some day pass by Mobile.
    As an example here is the book I "helped" my nephew Tomas write last time in Alabama visiting some friends. I'm the one on the dark-blue tie-shirt on the back-cover!

    Such a simple design but so perfect. It's a pity such decoration doesn't adorn some of today's architecture. Have a good weekend.

    Great shot Genie. I love that French shade of blue. I've never been able to duplicate that shade here. (Sigh)

    The blue caught my eye immediately. I love that shade used as trim on houses. What story is depicted by the little cupid fighting with a crow over a bunch of grapes? :-)

    Well done, Genie. Focusing in on a small part of the whole has rewarded your fine eye here.

    What Jack just said! Flowers would almost seem superfluous here, I think. Bon weekend, Genie!

    It is very nice. Looks like it's been painted more than a few times.

    The artist must have made this before pigeons became such a problem.
