1899 Eiffel Tower Wallpaper

This is one of my all time favourite Eiffel Tower depictions, painted by Georges Garen for the Exposition Universelle in Paris, 1889:

I have resized it to use as a wallpaper for my iPhone 6 and iPad Air:

I am so excited by these wallpapers, I keep tapping my devices just to see the red Eiffel Tower light up… 😛

And just imagine: the Eiffel Tower was meant to be temporary, first as an entrance gate for the exposition, and then to be taken down after 20 years! Thankfully they decided to leave it be, I believe it is the worlds most iconic man made structure! And I’m very happy to say I have actually visited it once, and seen Paris from the 180m high top level upper platform! 🙂

Go to the download folder below to grab your high quality copies of the wallpapers 🙂
