Stairs to Giacometti's Studio

I went to 46 Rue Hyppolyte-Maindron in Paris14 today for a look at the small two-story building where Alberto Giacometti had his studio (from 1926 to 1966, on the second floor--I believe his living quarters were on the ground floor). I approach a gardener who was tending a small park nearby.  He asked me if I was interested in Giacometti; I said "Yes indeed". He had the keys to the fence around the building, and we went in. I walked around the building, taking a dozen or so photos--this one shows the exterior stairs leading up to the studio.
