Seen from Pont Mirabeau, the Eiffel Tower rises beyond the Seine while Paris’s own Statue of Liberty stands on the Île aux Cygnes. Often overlooked, this smaller Liberty quietly anchors the river scene, linking Paris to its transatlantic history as boats pass and the city moves around it. A familiar view but one with layers that reward a second look.
“You don’t look for the Tower — you simply notice when she finds you.”
Part of the “Take on the Tower” Series
Each Tuesday, we turn our gaze toward the Eiffel Tower — seen not as a monument, but as a quiet companion to everyday Paris.
