Ceiling of the Opera Garnier

Posted by Aaron Schmidt (Auckland, New Zealand) on 10 February 2005 in Architecture.

As the title suggests this is the ceiling of l'Opéra Garnier, built in 1862-1875 by the architect, Charles Garnier. The ceiling itself was painted by Marc Chagall in 1964. Aurélie, Janet and I went to the opera last Friday to celebrate Aurélie's birthday. We had a wonderful time.
