Autumn in Lyon: Part 2

While my friend was visiting, since it was cold and raining, we went to the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon (The Museum of Fine Arts of Lyon). 

The man who made the Statue of Liberty was French!

"Le Penseur" (The Thinker) by Auguste Rodin (1881).  Didn't realize it was so small!

"Nave nave Mahana" by Paul Gaugin (1896).

"La Tamise a Charing-Cross" by Claude Monet (1903).

"Kew Greens (Angleterre)" by Camille Pissarro (1892).

"Paysanne au chale verte" by Vincent van Gogo (1885).

"La Fontaine Bartholdi" by Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi at Place des Terreaux.

The cool thing about La Fontaine Bartholdi is that there is actual mist coming out of the horses' nostrils, which makes it look like the horses are breathing heavy!  It's really quite cool.  The man who designed and constructed this statue is also the man who made the Statue of Liberty!  This statue is in Place des Terreaux in Lyon and is near the Opera House and the Hotel de Ville (for a picture of the City Hall, see the previous post)!  

Lastly, here's a photo of the Lyon metro (D line).  That's the line that I take to school every day, and also to basically everywhere I go into the city (since I need to take that line to transfer to other lines no matter where I am going).  The first thing I noticed when I came to France is how clean the metro in Lyon is; I thought it was a French thing, but unfortunately, after spending time in the metro in Paris, I have concluded that we just have a really nice, clean metro haha.
