... and the cleaning progresses...


About a year ago I posted about the cleaning and restoration of the Saint-Germain-des-Prés Church (see here). Then about half was done. Now the other “half” has just been finished. The colours are splendid, some may think almost “too much”… but soon time, dust, dirt, pollution… will do its “work” !





However, the aisles are still to be taken care of. The remarkable paintings which you normally find on the walls here are also taken away for restoration.

It's stunning, Peter. And a ton of work.

It is so nice to know that this church was restored in such an impeccable way! Wonderful!
Thank you, Peter.
