Final Out-takes de Paris, 2

Art Nouveau La Chaise de l'amour, from the Paris, 1900 exhibition; said to be 
that of the Prince of Wales, soon to become Edward VII
















I swear I am not making this up
















Thus


More from the naughty room of Paris, 1900















Jules Leblanc Stewart's Redemption, 1905




























Lady Asterbie's pet monkey (family joke)




















Random Roman arch, up near the Strasbourg-St. Denis Metro; actually, the
Porte St. Denis, celebrating some of the Sun King's military exploits, 1672
[just a few years later, we had another longer-term apartment, on Rue St. Denis,
just a block or so from this arch, and got to know it well
















In the fashion district...what you'll be wearing next year





















Look out, Colonel Sanders















Scribe, impresario of the Paris opera, Wagner's sworn enemy...















Maybe best not to do your cash withdrawal here...















Rain forest and restaurant















Love their humor
