Day 29: D'Orsay
The D'Orsay was one of my favorite museums in Europe. This is a shot of the central area as you walk in the main entrance. They have renovated an old building and added modern features. I love this ceiling.

Here is a modern addition to the building. Although these columns seem very modern they have roots based on a gothic flying buttress. I loves the colors and the way it stood out in the space.

The size of this clock was enormous! Behind it was the cafeteria where you could see up close the working gears of the clock. It stood taller than me!
