I saw Paris in 1990 -- the year the Eiffel Tower was celebrating its 100th birthday.  Maybe the sky of the late afternoon was unique to that city or maybe it was like any other sky in the world and the mystique of Paris had captured my imagination and colored the sky for me.  But when I went to Amsterdam and saw Van Gogh's "View of Paris," I was sure that we had seen the same sky.
