A wonderfully whimsical courtyard. Ciel, my daughter is coming to speak at a conference in Paris in August. Do you know of an affordable place she could stay for a week?
Poor fellow, sitting up there all alone in all kinds of weather! Hope he doesn't fall. There must be a reason for this, but I can't figure out what it would be! ;-)
Is there a story behind the statue? Why the bars on the windows, is it a court or something similar. Sorry for all the questions, but its an intriguing place. I deleted the last comment because of typos!!
This is great: I usually look around for things like these but are always harder to find. The decoration above looks like a very nice sundial, but I can see it very well even after enlarging the picture. May I ask this detail for another post?
J'aime ce genre d'art!C'est impressionnant, ça interpelle, et en plus , c'est beau! Le cadran solaire au-dessus est très coloré, et j'aime bien aussi la parfaite symetrie des deux immeubles jumeaux!
Wenn ich mich nicht irre, verstehst, schreibst oder bist du Deutsch,ich bin hier über Umwege gelandet. Da ich aus der Allier(03) nicht raus komme, habe ich nun die Gelegenheit, bei dir Großstadtzauber zu genießen. Und das werde ich gleich mal ausgiebig tun. Liefs Anett
Very intriguing image leaving me with more questions than answers. The figure is charming and puzzling, and I have even more curiosity about the blue sky and suns painting above with the tree and the V and VI numerals scattered about. . . Fun find! -Kim

Interesting. He looks a little large for the niche. I'm trying to figure out all the numerals. What am I missing?

How funny! Thankfully, there no door directly below him should he fall. I like how the numbers are dropping all around.

I wait until he falls down, lol !

This does provoke so many questions, Ciel. Such a mysterious exterior.

He certaintly is 'perched'. LOL
Love the flowered tree-lined walkway in the previous post. MB
What an interesting shot and a unique buliding facade. Well shot.
Darryl and Ruth : )
Most unusual! There must be an interesting story here.
@ VP: next time I'm "in town", I'll try to remember!
I love the splash of blue up high, wonderful and unique.
He must not be scared of heights :)

Bien originale cette facade! Un cadran solaire qui n'en est pas un... on y perd son latin et c'est bien amusant.
Beautiful details, and I love the BLUE color too.
My grandparents lived on that street. Thanks for the picture
Le cadran solaire indique que le bus va passer, il est temps de descendre.
Belle trouvaille !
