Tomb of Voltaire⏮ ◀ Voltaire ▶ ⏭ This is the tomb of Voltaire, one of the greatest of all French writers, in the crypt of the Panthéon, in Paris, France. Since Voltaire was quite famous, he gets a special spot in the crypt, complete with a statue, and an extra-fancy sarcophagus. It was really dark in this crypt, so I had to push this image substantially in order to get something recognizable. Photographed on July 13, 1999. |
