"When I realized that every morning I would see this light again, I could not describe my joy. I decided not to leave Nice and stayed there practically all my life"
( Henri Matisse )
******
When in 1917, at 48 years old, the painter discovered Nice, the light and reflections of the Mediterranean Sea aroused an unparalleled emotion in him. From 1921 to 1938 the artist lived in an apartment in the lively Cours Saleya, in Old Nice. From the balcony of his studio on the 4th floor overlooking the sea, he positioned his models in carefully arranged and highly theatrical settings, using an array of props, furniture and fabrics from his own collection.

This is my first Osprey of the year. Way out, but I took the shot. Hopefully I'll get the chance to get one fishing. Big crop. Central Bucks, PA.
What began as a could line right at N Holly signal when I arrived 25 minutes prior to the train getting here, turned into partly cloudy skies and a nice early sunlight shot here at N Holly with Lake State’s EMD SD40-2 No.6303 leading.
De Place Masséna is een bouwproject uit de jaren 1830, toen Nizza niet tot Frankrijk behoorde. Bij de komst van de tram in 2007 is het plein geheel opnieuw ingericht. De menselijke figuren in boeddhahouding op hun hoge masten, 's avonds van binnenuit verlicht, zijn een werk van de Barcelonese kunstenaar Jaume Plensa.
De Place Masséna was het centrale knooppunt van het vroegere tramnet in Nice dat bestond tussen 1878 en 1953. De elektrische trams betrokken hun spanning in het centrum van ondergrondse stroomrails, opdat het jaarlijkse carnaval ongehinderd kon passeren. L'histoire se répète: ook de tegenwoordige trams doen het hier zonder bovenleiding. Zij overbruggen dit traject met behulp van accu's
Place Masséna is a building project from the 1830s, when Nizza was not part of France. The place was thoroughly renovated when the new tram line was built, opened in 2007. The buddha-esque human figures on their high poles, lit from inside at night, are a work of the Barcelonese artist Jaume Plensa.
Place Masséna was the central hub in Nice's former tramway network, existing from 1878 to 1953. Power supply for the electric trams was in the centre by conduit instead of overhead wires, to allow enough space to the yearly carnival parade. History repeats itself: contemporary trams also do without overhead wires at this place. Now they run on batteries here
