Blue and Gold. Sky and Ginkgo biloba, Maidenhair Tree, Square Louise Michel, Paris, France
The Maidenhair Trees in Amsterdam's pretty Hortus have already lost their leaves. But here in Paris this one is golden against the blue sky. The tree was brought to Europe from the Far East in the 18th century, and I've mentioned it several times in this stream. It struck me as I was plodding up the hill that Maidenhair and Blue Sky in the present Advent remind of the Virgin whose designated color is blue.
PS Yes, that's the Sacre Coeur on the hill... The lady in red I don't know...
