This picture tells a story. In the foreground the modern world drones by, oblivious to the history watching over them. The Arc de Triomphe is relegated to the distance and washed away by a river of traffic. Through it you can see La Grande Arche de la Défense, sharply contrasting the curves of a classic arch. Old and new, arch and angle, near and far. All in a blink of a shutter. For a more relaxed cityscape, see Place de l'École Militaire
