The oldest bridge in Paris looked Thursday as if it had been swallowed by a mountain.
The transformation is the work of JR, the street artist known as the “French Banksy,” who this week began inflating a giant artificial “cave” over the Pont Neuf, turning the 17th-century bridge that has carried Parisians across the Seine for more than 400 years into a rocky illusion rising over the river.
It’s incredible to see, and we hope you will get to see it in person!
