Description
The statue on the Pont Alexandre III in Paris France seems to be leading the charge to the Eiffel Tower! Follow me! It seems to be saying! Maybe appropriately so since the Pont Alexandre III was built at the end of the nineteenth century as part of a series of projects undertaken for the Universal Exposition of 1900. The exposition took place on either side of the Seine river and the new bridge would enable the millions of visitors to more easily cross the river and visit the Eiffel Tower built not too many years earlier. The bridge connects the Champs-Elysees quarter with those of the Invalides and Eiffel Tower. The bridge is widely regarded as the most ornate, extravagant bridge in Paris and is classified as a French Monument historique.

I was looking for the Eiffel Tower and among the many images I found, this one made me chuckle with the foreground image pointing the way.
