Église Saint Étienne du Mont


The churches of Paris are museums of sculpture, architecture, and paintings. 
Église Saint-Étienne du Mont is abundantly overflowing in its richness.

bon dimanche

Saint Etienne du Mont is one of «Louis'» favorite places in Paris, so it always pleases him when you post an item about this jewel of a church.

Beautiful capture of this painting. As I'm thinking of you walking around Paris today, I'm getting that tingly feeling of excitement as if I were there myself. While there 'c'est obligitoire pour avoir un pain au chocolat pour moi'. And I could rattle off a list of other patisseries on that list.....I know your list won't disappoint.

Another beautiful day in Paris, a bit windy, but many splashes of sunshine. The parks were full of families. I returned three photos today surprising the recipients.

I found new paths and rediscovered familiar ones... A fresh day tomorrow!

Thank you for your comments while I am away. I read them all each day.
