The silhouetted buildings are Ecole Militaire and the Montparnasse tower.

On the day I chose to visit the Eiffel Tower during my recent weekend in Paris, the tower was partially shrouded in mist.  The mist was a bonus, it meant there were no queues and we were able to go up the tower without any delay.  As I looked down from the tower along the Champs De Mars I noticed two rows of statues, which I thought were people.  I decided to go and investigate when I got down from the tower…

My investigation revealed that they were statues of bears not people and that they were an artwork project.
