Full house & standing ovation for the third performance of the Death Note musical at the Barbican in London. Was a blast. Glad I could find some seats for me and my son! 😊 #anime #deathnote #musical #deathnotemusical

Live from Paris. Quite a beautiful sight on the aptly named "Avenue de le Grande Armée", that also finds renewed relevance in these troubled times... #14juillet #paris

Cannot leave Japan without a visit to the Eiffel Tower's little sister: the Tokyo tower (1958 - 332 m) 🙂 #tokyo #japan #japon

The grand-father of manga and anime - Hokusai - is celebrated at the Creative Museum of Tokyo. A large selection of his famed "mangas" (1814-1878) are on display and its easy to see how influential they have been 🙂 #mangas #anime #manga

Interresting Japanese space-saving concept of having a church on the 2nd floor and two chinese restaurants on the 1st! 🙂 #tokyo #Japan #ikebukuro

Last Friday at #Japanexpo, I took part with Balak and Nao Hirasawa in a conference on the influence of Japan on French artists & the possible future collaborations between the two countries. The path we opened with #ObanStarRacers will hopefully soon lead to more, including Sav the World's own! 🙂

Last Tuesday was the 75th anniversary of Japan's membership to UNESCO, an important date that marked the gradual readmission of the country in international organizations. I was honoured to be a guest at the celebrations held in Paris for that occasion 🙂 #japan #Japon #nihon

Crazy storm in Paris last night. Waking up in with my neighborhood filled with broken branches and even large trees that just snapped in two! 😳 #paris #changementclimatique #climatechange

Gustave Eiffel's ancestors came from the Eifel region, in Germany, around 1700, and more precisely from the town of Marmagen, which we had the pleasure of visiting this week 🙂 #GustaveEiffel

Enjoyed a great performance from #KenshiYonezu tonight at the Zenith in Paris - all the more enjoyable when one knows how difficult it is to get tickets for his concerts in Japan 🙂

Happy birthday to the ever beautiful Eiffel Tower. Exactly 136 years ago today, Gustave Eiffel climbed the 1710 steps of the monument and raised a giant French flag on top to mark its completion. I wish I could have witnessed it with my own eyes! 😊 #TourEiffel #EiffelTower

C’est avec émotion que j’apprends la disparition de Patricia Lyfoung, autrice de la bande dessinée « Rose Ecarlate », ici en 2000, collaborant à un film d'animation de Sav! The World Productions. Nous avions prévu l'année dernière de nous revoir prochainement. C’est trop injuste 😥

Eerie chimeras from the roof of the newly restored Notre-Dame cathedral I pictured this week. Did you know that unlike their gargoyle counterparts they were only added in the 19th century? 🙂

It was a pleasure to give great Japanese actor Koji Yakusho a friendly tour of the Eiffel Tower earlier this week. Since I discovered his work in Tampopo, and later in Unagi and many more, I’ve always been a great fan of his 😊 #KojiYakusho #TourEiffel #EiffelTower #Eiffel #Japan #Japin #役所広司

Reiko Kruk et son ami Koji Yakusho répondant au public aprés la projection du spectacle filmé des "Libellules Rouges" à la Maison du Japon aujourd'hui. L'auteur y lit son texte accompagné d'un orchestre. Voyez-le, c'est très beau et très émouvant! 😢

The decision to maintain the 2024 Olympic rings on the #EiffelTower continues to stir controversy (see my CNN interview here: t.co/TgLF7PZMy0) As a descendant, I think it was great during the games but am against keeping them there permanently. #toureiffel #paris #paris2024 #jeuxolympiques #olympics

I just love the look, smell and taste of a genuine Greek moussaka, especially when enjoyed under the cool shade of a tall plane tree 🙂

In the follow up of the Paris Olympic games, I answered the questions of journalist Morgan Golberg regarding the history of the Eiffel Tower. The full interview: “Eiffel Tower: everything you need to know” is on the ArchitecturalDigest website 🙂 www.architecturaldigest.com/story/eiffel... --

Beautiful lighthouses of Hiiumaa island #1: Ristna, the main reason for our trip. Completed in 1874 and 30 meters high, it is one of the few remaining larger lighthouse iron structures built by Gustave Eiffel 🙂

Savin Yeatman-Eiffel @eiffelsavin.bsky.social · 16/04/2024

Beautiful lighthouses of Hiiumaa island #2: Kopu, 38 meters high, built around 1531 and improved several times over the following centuries. Rumored to be the 2nd or 3rd oldest lighthouse still in activity today

La ville de Levallois, où Gustave Eiffel eut ses usines et a été enterré, rend à son tour hommage au célébre ingénieur et scientifique au travers d'une belle exposition, au vernissage de laquelle j'ai pris la parole avant hier au nom des descendants Eiffel. A voir à la mairie jusqu'au 17 fév. 🙂

This is no modern sculpture but an exemple of the ancient Japanese technique of #kamatsugi: a stylish & beautiful assembly technique allowing to join two carved beams together without using any nails. To learn more check the exhibition at the MCJP in Paris 😉 #Japan #Paris #wood #MCJP #carpenter

Moment d’émotion aujourd’hui pour le centenaire de la disparition de Gustave Eiffel. Après avoir déposé des gerbes sur sa tombe avec Mme la Maire de Levallois, j'ai rappelé, en tant que Vice-président de l'Association des Descendants de Gustave Eiffel la richesse & l'importance durable de son œuvre!

Filled with beautiful and already frozen lakes, the Canadian federal parc of Gatineau is 15' from the city of Ottawa and directly adjoining the city of Gatineau. Bears & other wild animals often venture in the gardens neighboring houses. For humans, it's a perfect place to loosen up 🙂
