Description
In a city of numerous world landmarks, the Arc de Triomphe is among the most identifiable and popular in Paris. Built in the early 19th century to honor Napoleon and the soldiers of the Napoleonic Wars. The monument is now a center of patriotism, with additional features honoring the sacrifice of French soldiers into the 20th century. The tomb of the Unknown Soldier (World War I) and Memorial Flame rests below the center of the arch.
The Arc de Triomphe Paris sits at the west end of the Champs-Élysées, along the L'Axe historique--a line of historic monuments/structures running west from the center of Paris to the Jardins des Tuileries (Tuileries Gardens) and Musée du Louvre. Along the historic axis sits the Seine-Arche project, Grande Arche de la Fraternité in La Défense, Esplanade de La Défense, Arc de Triomphe, Champs-Élysées, Place de la Concorde, Egyptian obelisk, Jardins des Tuileries, Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, and the Louvre.
I love the point of vie in this image, highlighting the imposing rise of the Arc de Triomphe. The digital paint adjustment of my original photographic image evokes the feel of French impressionist art, highlighting the striking architectural lines the patriotic Paris monument.
