Today, I went to visit the famous Montmartre district of Paris, famous for street artists and the Basilica of Sacre-Coeur, which is located on the crest of the hill.

As a fan of Salvador Dalí, I was excited to visit the The Espace Dalí, which is a permanent exhibition in France devoted to him and more particularly to his sculptures and engravings.
The museum has around 300 original artworks.
 |
| Dalí is known for his long-legged animal pictures. My students will love these! |
 |
| Dalís ink blot-style paintings were quite interesting. |
 |
| My students love Dalí 's melting clocks! Here is a sculpture of one. |
 |
| There was also some interesting reflective pieces. Here is a short video of this one. |
I learned so much about Dalí that I never knew before. His ink blot paintings were new to me, and I really enjoyed the sculptures. The museum was too dark for me to capture one in a 3D scan, but I was able to get a lot of great photos of them.
