Description
A bit of trivia, there are 37 bridges in Paris over the Seine River connecting the Left Bank and the Right Bank. Nicknamed “the most beautiful bridge in the world , Le Pont Alexander III bridge was built for the 1900 Universal Exhibition. It was built to resemble the neighboring Grand Palais, which also debuted during the World’s Fair. The foundation stone was laid in person by Tsar Nicholas II of Russia in 1896, thereby symbolizing Franco-Russian relations.
I had the wonderful pleasure of experiencing it in person in the fall of 2023. The area is so pleasant to walk and see the sites, including the Eiffel Tower that is so visible in this area! This piece was painted and donated to benefit a charity auction.
