September 2013 – Fesses of the Month

This month’s featured fanny can be found high on the façade of the Galeries d’Anatomie Comparée et de Paléontologie, viewed from rue Buffon. It is a bronze sculpture, the work of Jules-Félix Coutan. Entitled Chasseurs d’aigles, it depicts three men who are perilously perched on a cliff and are fighting for their lives against an angry eagle. They have already shot its companion in the neck with an arrow and have stolen two of its chicks.

The position of one of the men, twisting and falling backward, gives us the opportunity to admire his handsome fesses. Follow the link below for a close-up view!

August 2013 – Fesses of the Month

Beautiful fesses are displayed in the most surprising places in Paris! This month’s featured fanny can be found on the lintel above the entrance way to an apartment building at 20, rue de Longchamp in the 16th arrondissement. The alluring mermaids that flaunt their beauty there were sculpted by Jean-Désiré Ringel d’Illzach (1849 – 1916).

July 2013 – Fesses of the Month

Beautiful fesses abound in Paris! This month our photographer found a lovely pair in the Tuileries Garden.

In 1877, French sculptor Aimé Millet created this marble representation of Cassandre seeking the protection of the goddess Athena. Considered one of the most beautiful women in the world, Cassandra possessed the gift of prophesy, an attribute that had been bestowed on her by Apollo.
