Paris’ Ordinary Buildings with Extraordinary Facades

<h1>Why are there naked people hanging off the walls?</h1> <p>The naked woman and the toddler hanging off the fifth storey looked down at me. Directly beneath her was another woman, equally naked. Below her, was what appeared to be a duck, its wings frozen in stone, mid-flap. I gawked back, and laughed. This building facade was not some fancy palace or cathedral where you might expect angels, saints or gargoyles peering from the balustrades. This was a ordinary apartment in a residential part of&nbsp;<em>le Haute du Marais</em>. Only in Paris, I thought, would you see such extravagant artistry on such an ordinary building.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/mature-fl%C3%A2neur/paris-ordinary-buildings-with-extraordinary-facades-609b84517986"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
