Here is one of the last "édicule" (that is an Aedicula - I'm sure you all know what it is ;-), but just in case,
here is a link to Wikipedia!) from the famous metro stations designed by Hector Guimard, the famous French architect that was a big Art Nouveau player. I photographed it at Porte Dauphine (the other one is at Abbesses) last Saturday, while it was sunny. It's a real work of art and a definite must see.
It certainly does draw the eyes! I like it.

ReplyDeleteYes, you really have to see this if you come - and it's easy because all you need is to take the... metro!
