Palais Galliera, 16th arrondissement, Paris / constructed by Marie Brignole-Sale, the duchess of Galliera from 1878-1894, to hold her private art collections which she projected on offering to the city of Paris / didn't work out at the end, so this place has now become the Fashion Museum of Paris / stone facades constructed on a cast-iron frame designed by the Eiffel office

    I am Cedric, discoverer of things that would go unnoticed in the streets of Paris, historic haven of fashionistas and city of lights ('lights' as in 'enlightenment', not street lights).
    But seriously: I'm an expat from Luxembourg (the country, not the garden), living in the center of Paris (hence 'Paris 2nd arrondissement'), and currenlty studying architectural history...
