they've been pasteurised.

I love the old tiles in the Paris metro. In this shot I particularly love
the tile which carries the ceramist's name. 

The frame around the station names is one of the indicators of which line
you're on. Metro networks, like the tube, seem to bring out the best in
designers. The wikipedia article is quite informative:

This is what Pasteur used to look like:

When I first travelled on the Paris metro (not as long ago as that photo!)
they had still had some of those rickety old wooden carriages, smelling
evocatively of Gauloises, mutilés de guerre, and the shortage of bathrooms
in Paris. The modern carriages are very beautiful too.
