Appropriately monumental. You can see the église St.-Etienne-du-Mont peeking out from behind on the left.
Since the afternoon was warm and pleasant, I thought I'd walk over to les Halles via Cité and the Pont Neuf. That way I could walk past Notre Dame and through the Place Dauphine along the way.
That's a nice view of it bathed in sun. And I agree with your assessment of the crypt.
ReplyDeleteThat's a very interesting and detailed pic that shows that Sufflot was really an artist as an architect. We saw quite a few of his achievements when we were in Lyon 2 yrs ago.
