La grille rouillée et murée

This gate once allowed entrance into Madame Elisabeth's grounds from Avenue de Paris...

Cette grille permettait de pénétrer dans le domaine de Madame Elisabeth depuis l'avenue de Paris...

  2. The major architect in the first photo is the spider who spun that great looking web. Interesting photos.

  3. I agree with TFG, the spider who wove that web was a major architect indeed! Amazing! Great shots for the day as always, Ciel!! Have a great new week!!

    I think more than just a key may be required to gain entry here ;-)

  12. What a great find even though the gate doth not appear to be functional at the moment. It is a good reminder that eventually everything rusts away. :)

  13. It's beautiful, mysterious, and a bit sad.
    Whenever I see a blocked up old arch here in Israel, I wonder what they were trying to hide.

  18. Well, that's one way to keep unwanted visitors out of your garden. Make two ways.

  19. It looks rather sad now. I wonder who used to pass through it in days gone by.
