You know now that I think about it, whats the deal with the MPW beginning photo? Was it just a random wall in a park or what? Are you REALLY inside or outside?

Its funny the things that pop into my head sometimes :rolleyes:

It's the Matisse museum in Nice, France. It was built in 1622, then transformed in 1670 and 1823. It was called Palais de Gubernatis (from the consul de Nice's name in 1670). It is now called Villa des Arènes when the city of Nice purchased it. It is mostly about the painter Matisse.

You are outside, looking at the windows but there is a nice reflection :)

They were going to make the museum larger but found roman ruins:
