Ann-Christine is the host of this week’s Lens-Artists challenge and she has chosen the theme, “Feet and Shoes” https://lagottocattleya.wordpress.com/2021/08/14/lens-artists-photo-challenge-161-feet-and-shoes/

This is a statue of Montaigne, a very famous French author and public figure from the French Renaissance era. It’s located at rue des Ecoles, right in front of the entrance of The Sorbonne University in Paris. If you look carefully at his right foot you’ll see that his shoe is exceptionally shiny. Why? Because students believe that touching it before an exam will bring them good luck!
