A LIFE WELL SPENT
Victor Hugo said in his novel, “Assuredly, the Cathedral of Notre-Dame at Paris is, to this day, a majestic and sublime edifice,” One of the most notable monuments in Paris is the Notre Dame Cathedral. This treasure is over 850 years old and has survived the French Revolution and two World Wars. As the sun rises, the River Seine turned to golden hue illuminating the stained glass south Rose window of the Notre Dame Cathedral. Interestingly although it is a Catholic treasure, if you are ever in Paris, notice that the tympanum (entrance arch) where the male figures depicted are wearing pointed hats, which in medieval France are worn by Jewish men. Have you seen it? #crack3d_l3ns
