Can you see what it is, yet?

Can you see it at all?

When a large public building is put up in France a proportion of the cost must be put aside to commission a work of art. I think it may be as much as 2%. When they built the Bordeaux 3 university buildings you see here an artist put these special white rocks all over the courtyard.

I noticed them for the first time today, just over a year since I came here! Posted by Picasa

So how many hundreds of thousands of Euros did those stones cost?

I shudder to think, though it would have been francs then.

Please Chris, show some decorum! These are not stones, they're artefacts, not just any artefacts but French artefacts - with apologies to Marks & Sparks.
