Nice Opera

Freedom illuminating the Promenade des Anglais!

On the dock of the United States, a miniature of the Statue of Liberty stands before the Nice Opera in tribute to Gustave Eiffel. This famous engineer, in collaboration with sculptor Bartholdi, imagines the internal structure of the famous New York statue. He also intervenes on the Nice Opera whose roof was designed with the riveted iron technique.
