At the city limit stand these two monuments facing each other. One is dedicated to
General Pershing and is engraved with the names of famous World War I battles and Pershing's words 'La Fayette, here we come', pronounced on 15 June 1917. The second one is dedicated to
General La Fayette, also engraved with famous battles such as Yorktown, James River and Brandywine where he was wounded. His words in 1776: 'the instant I learned that America was fighting for its independence, my heart enrolled', thus committing French aid in the American Revolutionary war. The monument has recently been restored and I owe it to the renovators
As.ri.eu.pe to even have noticed it. These photos were taken in August.

Juste à la limite de la ville, à la lisière de la forêt de Fausses-Reposes, se trouve ce double monument, dédié aux généraux
Pershing et
La Fayette. De part et d'autre de la route menant à Ville d'Avray sont égrenés des noms de batailles de la première guerre mondiale et de la guerre d'indépendance des Etats-Unis, ainsi que les mots du général Pershing, "La Fayette, nous voici" prononcés le 15 juin 1917 et ceux de La Fayette, visibles sur la seconde photo (si vous l'agrandissez en cliquant dessus). Ce monument a récemment été restauré et je dois ces photos prises en août à
l'As.ri.eu.pe, qui a oeuvré pour sa restauration et qui a attiré mon attention sur son existence.

A house in Montreuil. Thank you to the 51 voters who took part in the poll. By an overwhelming majority of 84%, you said that the chronology was useful/interesting. When I have a little time, I'll get round to making it better..jpg)
Wedding season wasn't quite over yet a couple of weeks ago ! 
The queen's tiny theatre at Petit Trianon castle. Built by Richard Mique in 1778-1780, its ceiling was painted by Lagrenée. Marie-Antoinette herself took part in the acting of plays here by playwrights like Beaumarchais. I have added a poll under the header, I'd appreciate your opinion!
Avenue de Saint-Cloud is reflected in a fair trade shop for James' Weekend Reflections meme. I have added a poll under the header, I'd appreciate your opinion!.jpg)
When last April I had posted the whole view of the courtyard, VP of Livorno Daily Photo asked for a detail of the statue and sundial. Here they are. I have added a poll under the header, I'd appreciate your opinion!.jpg)
These charming doors are located in this courtyard. I have added a poll under the header, I'd appreciate your opinion!
