Photos: PICASSO, & PIAF'S Birth in BELLEVILLE!


Weather worn picture of Piaf and a pot of African Violets someone left.


My mug (again!) bearing witness.


Me and Green Doors.
A kind soul offered to take my photo, I guess he
didn't understand that getting the plaque and building
number in the picture were sorta what the photo was supposed to be ;-)


Legend has it that Edith Piaf was born on these steps.


72 rue de Belleville.


Belleville, side street with sunshine and cafe' le...


Even Graffiti in French seems sophisticated! (Belleville.)


Belleville.


Belleville.


Belleville, Plants.


Belleville. Cobblestones (like all the streets in Paris --- "most!")


What else is there?


PICASSO Museum


I love this sculpture. Titled: "Woman in the Garden."
(Of course you can't SEE it because my big mug is in the way!)


We have the same nostrils. She must have a deviated septum too!
(Similarities end there (I hope.)


Spooky man. Titled: "Man with Straw Hat and Ice Cream Cone."
This painting make me laugh. Very weird. Guard reprimanded me
for taking a photo. But, when I was alone in a room I would rub my
hands all over the sculptures to try and receive some of Picasso's
genius via permeation of the skin. We'll see if it worked!! ;-)
