A peek at the Opéra-Comique's renovated facade (2nd arrondissement). The interior is still undergoing restoration work, but outside, all its white and gold on this temple to the muses.

    Bonjour! Cedric,
    Wow, the architecture of the Opéra-Comique is quite amazing work of art!...Especially, all the detailed art work of the sculptures (Temple to the muses)

    Cedric said,"The interior is still undergoing restoration work..."

    I'am quite sure once the renovation is completed it's going to compliment the facade.
    Once again your photographs are...astonishing!

    Merci de partager!
    DeeDee ;-D

    I am Cedric, discoverer of things that would go unnoticed in the streets of Paris, historic haven of fashionistas and city of lights ('lights' as in 'enlightenment', not street lights).
    But seriously: I'm an expat from Luxembourg (the country, not the garden), living in the center of Paris (hence 'Paris 2nd arrondissement'), and currenlty studying architectural history...
