Photo of the Week

Here's the fancy bathtub drain at the Paris hotel we stayed in recently. It seemed a shame to expose it to dirty bath water, but I did, while wondering if Louis XIV would have had any such qualms.

Actually, I just made that up. This thing is vertical not horizontal. It's an interior detail from an ornamental niche at the Landmark Loew's Jersey Theatre. There are many such over-the-top decorative elements there. Click my pic for closer inspection -- and prepare to be awed.
