Les fleurs éternelles

Every cemetery I've visited in Paris has these lovely porcelain flower remembrances. Some are wreaths, some crosses, always beautiful. As they are exposed to the elements, their patina gets even richer. Often, as here, tiny moss begins to grow amongst the petals.

Cimetière Père-Lachaise, the largest cemetery in the city of Paris. As my cemetery expert, Owen Phillips likes to say, "Père Llachaise is the moss capital of the world!"
