Un petit passage


BILLTORNADE


Through open passageways one can walk into courtyards
and "visual opportunities" otherwise missed. 
In this instance, there was not even a cracked door to be pushed,
but the dark green doors beckoned us through.


The graceful curved steps at the end are the business offices of Bill Tornade. 
We only photographed and did not knock.

    Hello Genie,

    The doors and staircase are beautifully framed here. Yes, very tempting indeed to go through the passage, ascend the steps and enter a world of glamour......

    The French certainly know how to make an entrance, Genie.

    Now, will we get some fashion shots inside? Hope so. Take a chance. Knock.

    As others, I am sometimes so tempted to slip into these "passages," whether in Rodez, Toulouse or Paris!

    Love it. Hopefully I will be doing a lot of passageway peeking when we FINALLY get to Paris this year!
