Enchanted~La Faune Dansant

“A walk about Paris will provide lessons in history, beauty, and in the point of Life.” – Thomas Jefferson

After 23 years, I was delighted to be back in Paris. With no particular place to be on that first day, we strolled the streets and gardens. A turn down a path and we encounter the faune, La Faune Dansant. A Roman god of shepherds and herds

“Enchanté”, he greets me. “Enchantée”, I reply, and I am at once enchanted by his obvious joy and love of music and dance. Joy and love in a Paris Garden, “Oui, we will return. À bientôt.”

A Slower Pace

Downtown Little Rock, AR

Once upon a time, far, far away in a quiet garden along the banks of the Arkansas River she waits. The dancer poised in her graceful and delicate performance. She stands perfectly balanced, arms lifted, one foot on the hoop and one foot high in the air. Her bronzed figure, frozen in motion, in her timeless “infinite dance”. Enjoy the slower pace among the whimsical and the calming sculptures in the Volger Schwartz Sculpture Garden.
