Paris misses me* right now. Because of that, I will take the reader to the Metro "Les Halles", past the Tabac into the mall, past the many clothing shops offering les soldes, past the many food vendors, and up the stairs to the St. Eustache exit.**In the St. Eustache courtyard known as the Place René Cassin is a humongous piece of sandstone art, "l'Ecoute"*** by Henri de Miller. The piece is simple, yet captivating. I like to buy a sandwhich in Les Halles, and eat it in front of the statue. The statue can be photographed from many different angles, and there is a way to take someone slightly behind the hand where it looks like the person is standing in the Listener's hand.
On a sunny day, I can pass an hour in the Place René Cassin in front of the statue that I find serene. It is one of my preferred places.
*Oui, elle me manque.
** Or just take the more direct Châtelet-Les Halles metro.
