Café Grevin - rouge, rouge, rouge!



Café Grevin


The saturation of red at Café Grevin is enhanced 
by a sunny afternoon


This cafe is next door to the Musée Grevin waxworks museum, 
and was designed with a domed glass ceiling in one part, 
along with wood paneling.  
The decor is unusual with sorceress mirrors, 
red velvet upholstery and enchanted screens.  


I would be quite content to sit here 
and watch the pedestrians on the boulevard.

Ah, looks like my kind of place!! I'd be happy to spend some serious time there! Terrific shot for the day! You do capture the charm and appeal of Paris! Hope you're getting ready for a lovely weekend, Genie!

Moi aussi! So if we're ever in Paris at the same time (I hope), let's meet right here and enjoy the passing scene ensemble.

Great chairs!

Jack said...

Ouch, however much I like red -- and I do -- this might need to be toned down just a smidgeon.

Jeanie said...

How cheerful! Yes, it would be a perfect people watching spot!

I need my photo taken by Genie in a chaise rouge. Maybe in novembre?
