Impressionist art work is my favorite. I would love to see the Monet water lillies. Looks like a great building.
Saw that wonderful show a few years back in Boston.
Beautiful entrance - it could grace one of our better universities, Oxford or Cambridge maybe. A fitting building for a lovely exhibition.
A beautiful building with castle-like qualities.
I like those columns!
That would be an exhibit I'd happily trek through the snow and crud to see.
Nice looking building too.
I love Monet and that entrance looks so inviting! We got rid of all our snow the last 2 days but it is cold here again today.
The arches are beautifully shaped. I like the way you've positioned the middle one perfectly to frame the arch and door inside.
Lovely building but the revolving doors are a bit distracting (though necessary with your weather)... I would love to see the Monet exhibit and have seen the huge one at L'Orangerie.

It's so beautiful entrance - must be nice place to visit!
Impressive but not too grand entrance which is good. Are you going to brave the snow to see the waterlilies?
A majestic, but quiet, looking entrance.
You have so much lovely architecture up there! I love the look of this old place. :)
PS: I appreciate your comments on the new blog. That's exactly the kind of thing I need to know! I tried changing the color of the font, but I can't tell if it's different. Please stop by and take a look. And be honest. I can't improve things without honest criticism. :)
Nice entry but I think I would get rid of the revolving door.
Snow, ice and crud? Sounds like perfect reasons to duck inside and enjoy the exhibit. Btw, the SDP mgt. has made a notation to repost the Christmas music link in the fall,
Beautiful entrance!
As I've mentioned, I've been meaning to visit there but now I think I'll wait until the renovations are over before going back. I liked it there very much and lunch wasn't bad in the cafe, either.
Stay warm!
