I first visited the Opéra Garnier in Paris in 1998. It is a fantasy, with Cinderella worthy sweeping stairs, piped golden flourishes, and Chagall ceilings.
La Couronne, the Crown, is a romantic piece of opera costume from the Bibliothèque-Musée de l'Opéra.
You fall in love with its frayed lines and delicate flowers, studded with lapis lazuli, evoking a whimsical, supernatural performance in old Paris.
