Park in front of the Louvre. Whitney in front of the Louvre.
Walking along the river Seine, still by the Louvre.
Still (it's a huugggee palace, more than a city block). On the right is the church that one of the kings built because the Notre Dame wasn't good enough for him. He had stained glass from the top to the bottom of the building, which fell in several times and shattered because the glass was too heavy for the little support the building and panes offered.
Notre Dame
These sculptures are outside the Notre Dame, on the door frames and everywhere. Whitney told me that they used to be painted bright colors, but that it wore off. In the Notre Dame at Amiens, where she studied, they use special lights to relect off the paint and bring out whatever residue of color there is left.
