the parisian courtyard...


The French seem to be the masters of the hidden courtyard...particularly in Paris and sometimes it would seem that every second doorway leads to a surprise destination. Many of them are private but those that aren't can often lead to a world of retail enchantment or be cause for palpitations of the architectural beauty kind...assuming you love Paris like I do. 

This passageway had me swooning...for the pavé stones, for the distressed wooden panelling, for the massive painted doors, for the ornate cornices, for the oversized black lettering and last but not at all least for the treasure filled antique shops....A pathway to heaven really...xv
