Le musée des beaux arts

No – not the W H Auden poem about Bruegel’s masterpieces but Lyon’s very own version.

We didn’t go in as many of its most famous paintings won’t go back on display for a month.

But as my French teacher has told me there is a beautiful courtyard here that you can explore for free – elle a raison- comme toujours.

A beautiful courtyard
Plenty of colour
Rodin’s the shadow
A nice view of Auguste Bartholdi’s fountain

We’ll come back next month.
