Paris part 1: The Louvre by night

The Louvre is one of the largest museums in the world. Located in a former royal palace, it looks out over the Champs Elysées.

This glass pyramid was designed by the Chinese-American architect I. M. Pei, and forms one of the entrances of the Louvre museum. Prior to my visit, I had seen some photos of this structure and had a rather negative feeling about it: It seemed to me that this very modern pyramid didn't fit into the surrounding historical buildings. Visiting the square with the pyramid at night changed my opinion, though: It's rather amazing how this hypermodern building blends quite well with the old styles.

Belle image de la Pyramide du Louvre.
Pei a osé le faire car le pari n'était pas gangné d'avance!
Bizarrement, l'intégration de cette structure n'a pas défiguré le site!
Un bel exemple de Feng Shui réussi!
Petite suggestion : un filtre froid pour la dominante couleur.
Autrement : excellent travail!

Hello Gerd,
