To commemorate the 120 jubilée of the famous iconic structure of Paris, the city is holding an exhibition on the founding father; Gustave Eiffel.
Apart from the obious, there were many sketches and projects that have never been realised and even more of those who have been realised. Bridges, various buildings and structures from south east asia to europe shows a man of great fame and of equal skill.
I also highly appreciated that there was a section of paintings that incorporated the famous tower, notably by Delaunay and Chagall. It made you realised that the tower since the beginning had a very important impact on contemporary popular cutlture, that's still continuing today.
Delaunay & Chagall
All in all, it's was a very nice exhibition, allbeit too small to wait 30 minutes in line for, espeicially in the rain. If you by any chance are in the area and there aren't too many people in line, it's worth having a look.
The exhibition is open untill 29th august daily except sundays and public holidays from 10 am to 7 pm at 5, rue Lobeau.
