I love Picasso so the Picasso-Rodin exhibit at the Musée Picasso easily made my list. The exhibit combines photos, videos, text, and, of course, art in many formats to celebrate the life of the great artist and to show how his work relates to that of Rodin.
But first I had to get there. We're staying in the left bank and the museum is in the right bank, in the same Marais neighbourhood as a number—a large number—of other museums and memorials, so the walk has become a familiar, almost daily, occurrence. The photo was taken on my walk; it's looking from the Pont des Arts pedestrian-only bridge towards Pont Neuf on the Île de la Cité. The sky is a little hazy in this photo, the weather is cool, but it's comfortable for walking.
I may have mentioned previously the big trial taking place on the island; it is related to the bombings of a few years ago. Most days this end of the island is heavy with police though it looked quiet today.
