This week's doorway is the Tribunal de grande instance or superior court with general jurisdiction for civil matters. The whole building can be seen reflected here.
-------------------------------------
Pour voir l'immeuble entier reflété, c'est ici.
I like the trees reflected in the glass of this building. The door is not one I would want to pass through, though.
ReplyDeleteI'll admire it from this side of the glass, thank you very much!
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful building with doors to match. The reflection is great!
ReplyDeleteSeems so modern looking compared to the palace. :))
ReplyDeleteDo you spend much time here? Courtrooms fascinate and repel me at the same time. Maybe I should have been a lawyer?
ReplyDeleteLooks like a grande building, too, which is appropriate for the "Tribunal de grande instance," right?
You had some fun and funny comments today! Merci!
Nice reflection!
ReplyDeleteIt is a mondern building and door. We don't see too many on VDP.
ReplyDeleteOne can only wish that right will continue to live inside this building.
ReplyDeleteLooks friendly to me.
Please have a good Wednesday.

I like your book idea, but don't short change yourself. I'd be showing the more base side of society probably, and you the more refined. :)
ReplyDeleteHey, the civil courts. I had ours on my downtown St. Louis blog today. I suspect that the trees reflected in the glass are more pleasant than what goes on inside.
ReplyDeleteLes reflets sont hyper joli ! :)
ReplyDeleteles couleurs sont très douces et le reflet superbe. On dirait presque une scène d'automne.
ReplyDeleteIt is a very serious doorway. MB
ReplyDeleteIt's a soft and pretty reflection, even if it is in what you call the ugliest building.
ReplyDeleteGrenat bronze et or finallment cet immeuble n'est pas si moche quand on prend la peine de le regarder de près...
ReplyDeleteJ'étais toujours fourrée au tribunal d'instance d'Epinal ou de Pontoise, ce que c'est d'avoir une mère et une fille nées à l'étranger et d'y être née soi-même...
Retour à mes vertes années..Heureusement que les arbres adoucissent la sévérité des lieux!
ReplyDeleteRe your comment on dog walking owner: That is a very well-trained owner!
ReplyDeleteYou're right it's not very pretty...but I like the reflection of the trees :-D
ReplyDeleteI am wary of tribunals of any sort or grade, but this one looks more like the entrance of a department store, and this is intended like a compliment!
ReplyDeletey a une justice la porte est ouverte
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a BIG building look. Thanks for adding that link.
ReplyDeleteI like the modern look, the symmetry, the shinny glass and steel. You framed this shot nicely to give us a hint of the entire building.
ReplyDeleteThe reflections of the branches of the trees are fascinating to me, just as the the branches of justice are fascinating. When I worked as a court reporter in Tennessee, I remember a sign on one of the columns that said, "when you have the law, you have a friend".
