You might remember that, in 2006 and then in 2007, Jacques Rival enclosed the Statue of Louis XIV under a glass dome in the middle of Place Bellecour. It was a snow globe to be more precise and it became one of the Festival of Light’s most iconic installations. Including it in the jubilee lineup was a no-brainer!
The statue has recently been renovated and the Sun King has been transported into modern times in his monumental snow globe. A popular spot for locals and tourists alike, Place Bellecour will be bathed in cyan and magenta in its poetic microcosm.
I love Lyon with its swirling snowflakes appeals to our childhood memories.
