They're re-guilding the Golden Dome and the statue of Mary atop. We've been getting a bird's eye view, so I thought I would share this photo by Matt Cashore. Isn't it cool?
If this is the kind of thing you're interested in, Notre Dame's website has a lot of in depth information on the process. And yes...they do use real gold leaf!
Wow! While I would consider it an honor to to do that, yikes!! too far from the ground for my liking
ReplyDeleteSo fascinating, Coni! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLovely. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI am happily surprised to see they are making such exciting progress, I will look online to see more. I spent 5 months in Paris and often visited the Cathedral.
