stops
The first Arc de Triomphe on this hill was painted canvas, put up so Napoleon could ride under it with his new empress; the stone one took thirty years and four regimes, and he passed under it only in his coffin. Meet the exiled sculptor who gave Liberty his wife's face, the poet who never got his father's name onto the walls, the artist who dreamed of wrapping the arch from a maid's room nearby, and the young soldier who chose the Unknown Soldier with a bunch of carnations.
