Doors...


Nothing special, just that during some of my walks I sometimes tell myself … it’s worth looking at the doors. These are all examples from just a little piece of a discrete street in the 7th arrondissement. Actually, what I call a “street” has got two avenue names:  Avenue Frédéric-Le-Play, Avenue Emile-Deschanel. In the 1910’s, 20's and 30’s, a lot of attention was still given to details in the decoration. I could make hundreds of posts, similar to this one… I may make at least another one – one of these days. 
























Some more detailed illustrations.

Is any other place in the world (maybe in more of France) so richly decorated? Can we just tell at a glance where we are? Maybe this is why I chose Paris over London in a debate with my traveling friends.
