Wednesday Doorway: la chapelle de la Providence
Immediately next to Saint-Louis cathedral is the entrance to the Providence Chapel which was built in 1764. -------------------------------------- Jouxtant la cathédrale Saint-Louis se trouve la chapelle de la Providence, construite en 1764.
My mom used to have a poster that had a mish mash of doorways and it was very cool - I think you should make one with all of your doorways...very neat!
I have never been inside of the Saint-Louis cathedral because it is away's locked when I'm in town but I have been inside of the Providence Chapel. Very beautiful place I tuck a few photo's of paintings inside.

A nice-looking door for sure. Why, to you think, they call chapels by the name of "Providence"?
What is "providential" about them?
Sorry, I'm just being a little snarky this evening! No, I'm not sorry, I'm enjoying it.
Hope you're sound asleep by now!
Au revoir!
Jolie facade. Elle a eu droit au numero 7, c'est deja une providence c'est un bon numero :)
Ok. We like the doorway.
Will we like the interior?
hint hint
;-)
The architecture was grand, Roman with a french imperial twist. It could be a tomb as well as a chapel.
It looks very solid.
effectivement une remarquable façade culture de versaillaise et partout.
Love the door series. How many do you think have been blue doors? Quite a few I imagine. MB
I like the touch of gold on the door. Looks like a small sun!
on dirait les portes d'un temple maçonnique
Olivier is right, there is something strange in this façade, almost esoteric... Always funny to find a street number on a building like this.
I like the name above the door!
Moi ce que j'aime dans cette porte, c'est son bleu si particulier..Le bleu et blanc, c'est une association très mediterranéenne..
It's massive!I loved the contrast "blue and white", just beautiful!

Yes, I too like the blue and white. Have you seen yesterday's Oakland Daily Photo?
une entrée comme ça c'est providentiel :_)
