The Grand Foyer of the Opera Garnier, Paris, France

The grand foyer is 154 metres long, 13 metres wide and 18 metres high.

In order to complete its decoration, the Opera’s architect, Charles Garnier collaborated with the painter Paul Baudry(1828-1886) who at the time was in Rome painting replicas of the Sistine Chapel. In its tones of old gold, this vast space was created at the most prestigious level of the theatre close to the first-category boxes. It was intended to be a place to rest, stroll, and mingle with high society.

Sainte-Chappelle, Paris, France

Situated in the Ile-de-la-Cité, the Sainte-Chapelle is part of the Palais de la Cite, the residence of the royalty during the 10th to the 14th century.

It is one of the greatest examples of Gothic Architecture.

Built during 1242 and 1248, in accordance with the wishes of King Louis IX, it housed the collection of the relics of the Passion of Christ.

The 15 stained glass windows tell the story of mankind from Genesis to the Resurrection of Christ through 1.113 scenes.

The Rose Window above the entrance of the Upper Chapel depicts the Apocalypse of St. John.
