Bouche de Metro

Metrobouche

This an entrances or "bouche",  for the Palais Royal/Musee de Louvre metro stop.  I imagine that it's one of the newest entrances in the city. It's kinda cool, I guess.  But I look at it and all I see is bird cages and chicken feet. The sculpture certainly stands in contrast with the elegant lines of the original art nouveau portals. Maybe I will go to the Porte Dauphine tomorrow and take a  picture of one of two such remaining "mouths".

Speaking of mouths, I wish that guy's butt was not taking up a third of the picture.

I didn't even notice the guy's butt until you pointed it out.
