What a beautiful wall.
Berit.
Laurent, I saw that façade in June with Virginia and friends. It is a good thing that painting is up high enough that the usual graffiti "artist" does not spoil it. Nice shot!
I love this! ♥
Here we go. I"ve got a lot of photos of this but never posted them because I couldn't remember anything about the paintings. Very cool place.

Very nice! Just proves that you should always look up!
I totally missed this while walking down rue Mouffetard. Thanks for the photo and all the info.
Gorgeous! I'd forgotten about this; thanks for posting it.
