Here's a photo of a street sign in Montmartre that my daughter Grace took while touring the area with Linda from Frenchless in France.
The red sign with the white bar normally means "interdit" or "do not enter." The sign underneath that says "sauf" with the bicycle means except bicycles.
Someone has etched a person carrying the white bar. I love the way the figure looks as if it's struggling under the weight of the white bar.
I'm not sure how or why the artist or graffiti-ist did this, but I think it's awfully clever.
Hope you are all dreaming of France too.

that is pretty funny.
That's a typical work by a street artist called Clet. You can do a google image search for his stuff, and even like him on Facebook.

I knew about him before we went last time, and was excited to find some of his work last visit too.
Louise, Thanks for the background.
