I like this. It’s like a Renaissance perspective study, but with the figure at the back instead of the front. It also has a kind of Hopper feel, like the Paris photo, but with the older building, maybe more Di Chirico than Hopper.

That last arch is disturbingly but beautifully off; at a guess the chamber unseen is circular, since the corridor through which the statue is glimpsed is also askew.

I look forward to these Sunday photos. Thanks!

IIRC – and it could be wrong, it’s been years – but one of the last French Standard Metres is around there, a block stuck in a wall with the length delineated on it so that passersby might learn about the new unit.

Sheltered there from the rain once.
