When my wife and I were in Paris about two weeks ago, we saw cranes around the Arc de Triomphe. We thought that they might be refurbishing it, but were told that the were preparing to wrap in fabric as part of an art project. Apparently this was one of Christo's creations. Here is a story on the project. If you watch the video, you can see the Arc fully wrapped.
Wrapping of Paris's Arc de Triomphe in fabric begins, a tribute to late artist Christo
A first giant sheet of fabric was draped down the Arc de Triomphe in Paris on Sunday as work started to wrap the monument in a tribute to late artist Christo.
