The Beautiful Femmes of L'Opera Garnier

Today I visited L'Opera Garnier of Paris, one of the

most beautiful buildings in this city of many beautiful

buildings.  L'Opera features both performances in opera 

and ballet at this facility.

Everyone is familiar with the Opera's famous painted

ceiling by Chagall and I will show that to you at a 

later date. Everyone was madly taking photos of the 

ceiling and the building but I was caught up with

 the beautiful paintings, statues, and merchandise 

of the women of the ballet.  

 I didn't recognize any of the names of the painters of these

beautiful works but I raise a glass to their lovely ladies.

 These beautiful glass lamps of ballerinas were for

sale in the theatre shop.  I kept circling these lovely

lamps until I saw the price started at over $500 euros

for the smallest dancing lady.

 Here is a troupe of the beautiful ballerina lamps

sitting on the steps leading up the to the

main hall of the opera.  Wouldn't these

be wonderful in my home? 

I think so.

There was tulle everywhere.

Costumes from previous shows danced

in the display cases.

This is the outside of L'Opera and

 should be on the itinerary of anyone

who visits Paris.  

Stop by ... the ladies are waiting

to dance for you.
