FAMOUS, A DAY?

Anyway, this looks to me like a good start!

I can not remember how I found this, does anyone have had to discover the site -FRANCE METRO, a kind of diary news apparently very popular (and same time very often passed on as a free "paper" in the subway, I hate is well known):

So guess what? Well without me (nicely) warned, they quote me in fifth position in their famous list, "Top Blogs Parisiens, ARCHIS PARIS:

Too cool is not it?
Above that, having noticed this publicity just days after my birthday (January 25), this made me really happy!
PS: Chance among the hazards? It turns out that almost the same time, my friend Sheily (IRL yet, but this is coming, one of these four!), Editor of the famous Paris Secret Blog , Comes to his turn to nominate one to three "winners" contest BlogMoiParis through his second Blog On Wall , I advise you just as much, if you like the graphics ... Like what: work, fatigue and sweat, and even walking, it turns out in the end almost always very positive, lol!

SOME ARTISTS ...

In Parc Monceau, of course!

Park which I can not resist quoting the famous door again due to Claude Nicolas Ledoux (1736-1806), although I have done many times:

Still that famous Sunday, January 16 (following the previous article !), the view was fabulous especially with this time at 100% sublime and temperatures verging on 14 ° C:

Just before turning to the three artists to justify my title, a few views on the vegetation of this park, already almost evocative of spring, the most amazing world, is not it?

As one of this enormous "leg of T-Rex" by about three meters (actually, the foot of an oak over 200 years!):

So here ... The first statue of one of these artists, relatively forgotten today:

Except one of his operas Faust appointed :

A French composer of the nineteenth century who, like me, loved that famous instrument , quoted in the sculpture:

the point he had even built a home in an apartment very close to the place of General Catroux unfortunately destroyed today (although a plaque with his name still appears at the same address):

In this case, the formerly famous Charles Gounod (1818-1893):

Well, go, goodbye to him (which I've never raved, lol !)...

To suddenly discover that the other composer, not French (although he spent most of his life among us), but rather ethnic Poles:

Will you guess who it is? But yes, of course, yes, I suppose, especially since they have not stopped talking about him in 2010, just to celebrate the 200th anniversary of his birth year:

Another question in passing: there is a bonus "hénaurme" defect in this aberrant act, but Perhaps the only real pianists will they discover?

Even more clearly

No, still no idea?
Nevermind, in this case ... Since this did not prevent him from knowing a bunch of girls, like this sculpture suggests a very "pious"

Anyway, Mr Frederick Chopin (yes, he was born in 1810 and sadly died in 1849) has not had to put his feet Hell, as seems to indicate the top absolutely "heavenly" This statue

Third and final sculpture, certainly more difficult to identify:

With any like that of Charles Gounod the same look a little bit "arrogant"

But at the same time, like that of Chopin , a young girl lying in a " devotion "to his feet

Otherwise for me being extremely "fetish" on this side (as everyone surely knows, thanks to my other blog ), I hate this kind of shoes with heels that are too small, lol!

Come on, here's the solution:

course, rather difficult to read ... So I said, it was the famous novelist Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893), died almost crazy and after several suicide attempts at the age of 43 years (the poor)!

And now: I finished the lap of the three statues that interested me (although there is much more than this)! After that, finishing my walk past the very famous and very beautiful Naumachie , I am of course fell in front of my pets:

Much Part of the gulls, but also ducks:

In summary ... If I have "reincarnated" one of these four, as triple air sign, provided it is in one of these forms - and even if you have a choice as Aigle mountain, if possible!
ultimate image of the famous park:

I loved this Sunday, so everything was sublime: the weather, temperature, sunlight, the almost total lack of movement, etc. ... Strongly that all this comes back soon, lol!

Remember, four previous articles about the same place:
1) Parc Monceau, in summer 2007
2) Parc Monceau in winter 2009
3) Parc Monceau, in summer 2009
4) Parc Monceau, in spring 2010

you soon!

STREET PRONY

A beautiful Sunday, the 16 January!

So, up early for once (yes, before noon, lol), I decided not to start my day sitting at the piano, but simply by giving me a nice walk in the corner, beginning first with the very little traffic Ampère , reaching the famous Place Pereire with his old station (now converted to the RER C):

Just across one of these well-known restaurants, certainly not in my taste (since I do not fond of meat), but still making reference to one of my favorite brands of sneakers, Buffalo :

short, the weather was sublime ! Not a single cloud, and prime grazing the temperature 14 ° C, so I was again in and cropped trousers T-Shirt:

What else about the place Pereire ? Well first of all, a small car "dancer" (I guess), color newsworthy posters of our conservatories, now an absolute bad taste, as everyone knows :

Just compensate story, the famous restaurant Dessirier (because I love the fish & shellfish), due to Michel Rostang :

A little later, a tribute to two of the greatest creators of this district

and another on the French Expeditionary Corps Italy, led by the Marechal Juin , and since 1973 the new name of this place (that nevertheless most people still call up Pereire ):

A very nice pharmacy, dating probably still nineteenth century:

And here, once done the trick, here I am finally at the beginning of the title of this article, rue de Prony , leading up to this Pereire to the famous Parc Monceau , vaguely visible at the bottom if you click on the picture:

I'm starting with No. 101, where were again three statues of satyrs (very common in the seventeenth, like those of which I I recently spoke rue du Général Foy ):

While it's not just buildings Haussmann this street, like it's No. 94, obviously very bright Sunday:

But this remains still the vast majority, as indicated in passing one of those famous plates:

That said, there is almost always in the seventeenth (and indeed in the sixteenth century) one or two exceptions in this street style, generally due to the architects of the 1960s, so "proud" of themselves they usually fail to sign their filthy buildings (lol!):

Post is also of a more modern buildings that Haussmann, yet with its own charm (if you agree with me):

arrived almost half of the street, I cross my usual course Avenue de Wagram, this day with a stunning view the famous Arc de Triomphe , and for once virtually any car (I love, remember! ):

Plus a beautiful mansion at No. 67, that of course I immediately offer me if I won both my life as appalling Mylène Farmer using as little of agreements (that which is unfortunately not the case!):

With exactly opposite, at No. 60, this amazing building Haussmann lined contemporary three new floors (rare):

Soon after, the tiny and very harmonious rue Meissonier , leading directly to the place of General Catroux :

And finally, the last building in the 1960's dismal No. 44:

All this just before going to the most beautiful section of the Rue de Prony , one leading from No. 41 to the Park Monceau , starting with this sumptuous private house on the corner of Rue Fortuny :

It's very famous playwright Edmond Rostand (1868-1918):

overview of this sublime section, where there are almost as large mansions, best proof

Including this one, which belonged to the forgotten Jacques Rouche (1862-1957), the wealthy head of the Paris Opera , gifted enough to have sent all his life shit Erik Satie (1866-1925), whose cons by everyone remembers today (although he died in poverty in the most absolute) :

Hotel even more sublime opposite:

As one of the last just before arriving at the park:

A place you go to the embassy of course immediately identify the country, I suppose

And voila! Admittedly, my walk of nearly two hours is not complete (since I had to take something like a hundred pictures, about sixty, once sorted) ... Anyway, for now, I interrupt this post here, leaving soon to make a second on the famous park Monceau , where spring begins curiously almost already to show:

just to be precise, I had already published a lot of text & photos on these two locations very close to my house, starting with four articles on Ampère :

1) Rue Ampere # 1
2) Rue Ampere # 2
3) Rue Ampere # 3
4) Rue Ampere No. 4 (Section dedicated to the movies!)
For pousuivre with four others on the Park Monceau :
1) Parc Monceau, in summer 2007
2) Parc Monceau, in winter 2009
3) Parc Monceau, in summer 2009
4) Parc Monceau, in spring 2010

you soon for a fifth section, then, of course on the same subject, lol!
