ENS - main entrance (Scaniverse)

Entrance of the historic building of the ENS, at 45, rue d'Ulm. The inscriptions on the pediment of the monumental doorway display the school's two dates of creation (the first, 9 brumaire an III (30 October 1794), in the oculus, under the National Convention, the second, 17 March 1808), and the date of dedication of this building, 24 April 1841. Above the entrance door are sculptures of two female figures who respectively represent letters and sciences. They are portrayed sitting on either side of a medallion of Minerva, who represents wisdom. 📍 [École Normale Supérieure - PSL, Paris, Île-de-France, France](https://scaniver.se/L48.84205,2.34438)  Scanned with the iPhone12 Pro and Scaniverse.
