Yes, I think a lot of people will go for the obvious on this theme. Always good to be a little different. 🙂 Nice choice.

No, Easter is the same here. I was simply wishing you a happy Easter before I left to go on holidays. You didn’t see the message in my pre Easter post? I’m back now, so no problem. 🙂

There is something about this sculpture, it calms one down, I feel.
Especially with the music on, it’s so nice to just look at his face, so peaceful it is.
Very nice perspective and right lighting, Paula.
Have a beautiful weekend 🙂

Probably Montaigne had a direct influence on authors all over the world, like William Shakespeare, René Descartes, Stefan Zweig, Friedrich Nietzsche and many more – reminds me a bit of english Thomas More and dutch Erasmus of Rotterdam – they were from the same time of history and have a lot in common I think… 🙂
Very well captured… 🙂

(Couldn’t agree more!) Félicitations, congratulations for displaying Montaigne’s statue, Rue des Ecoles. One of my first stops whenever I go to Paris. Most people just by the statue disregarding of of the first (and one of the greatest) writers of all time. The first, probably to look into himself to understand his human nature. Merci infiniment! And congrats on your blog.
