A Week in Paris–Part Seventeen (the Louvre)

A Week in Paris–Part Seventeen (the Louvre) August 27, 2024

O.K. So there was more at the Louvre that I had good pictures of, particularly the work of Delacroix and Corot.

For example, here’s Delacroix’s St. Sebastien–

And Corot’s A Monk Reading..

Or Corot’s The Prisoner of Chillon..

 

Or Delacroix’s Turk seated by a saddle…

Or his Turk Smoking a Pipe

Or the Crusaders entering Constantinople in 1204..

And here’s Corot’s looking at the Coliseum through the arch of Constantine…

In the following pictures we are looking at the Church of St. Jacques, a Benedictine Church, and remarkably plain compared to some of the churches we have looked at.

And here finally is a very young parishioner looking cool.
