Street Art: A Paris Invasion

When I was in Paris last year, I was gazing around, admiring the architecture of the buildings (okay, okay, I was looking for somewhere to get a chocolate croissant), and I spotted a small mosaic on the side of a building that reminded me of a video game I used to play as a kid.
