Paysage en Paix

Peïra-Cava est dominé par sa cime éponyme à 1 581 m. d'altitude.
Situé sur une crête séparant les vallées de la Bévéra, de la Vésubie et du Paillon. Son relief peu accidenté, comporte de nombreux replats qui en font un site original pour un village perché à 1 450 mètres d'altitude. Ce village offre ainsi de multiples points de vue sur la chaine des Alpes, les massifs du Mercantour, de l'Esterel allant jusqu'à la mer Méditerranée avec les îles de Lérins et un aperçu exceptionnel sur la Corse par très beau temps.

Peïra-Cava is dominated by its eponymous peak at an altitude of 1,581 meters.
Located on a ridge separating the Bévéra, Vésubie, and Paillon valleys, its relatively flat terrain features numerous flat areas, making it a unique location for a village perched at an altitude of 1,450 meters. This village offers multiple viewpoints of the Alps, the Mercantour and Esterel massifs, stretching all the way to the Mediterranean Sea with the Lérins Islands, and an exceptional glimpse of Corsica in very good weather.

Porte du Peyrou (1691)

Montpellier (34), France.

Architect: Augustin-Charles d'Aviler (1653–1701).

The Porte du Peyrou is a triumphal arch in Montpellier. It is situated at the eastern end of the Jardin de Peyrou, a park near the center of the city.

The arch was designed by François Dorbay, after the model of the Porte Saint-Denis in Paris. Its construction was completed in 1693. Its rusticated surface is crowned by a Doric entablature, suitable to a martial monument. Its later panels in bas-relief and inscriptions glorifying King Louis XIV of France were added in 1715.

These reliefs show four major events from the reign of Louis XIV, rendered as allegories:

- the capture of Namur during the War of the Grand Alliance, in which the figure representing the Dutch Republic kneels before Louis XIV.
- Louis in the figure of Hercules being crowned by Victory.
- the digging of the Canal du Midi that links the Bay of Biscay with the Mediterranean Sea.
- the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes.

I must have taken hundreds of photos of the village in my time, but this one caught my eye.

It is taken from the southern boundary of the village, looking up and to the north. It strikes me as a nice composition with trees, the road, the bamboo in the field, and the clouds all seeming to lead to the church on the hill.
