Just back from an incredibly inspiring trip to Paris.
The Pont du Carrousel crosses the Seine at the Louvre, and was built in 1833-4. Other nearby landmarks footsteps from where this photo was taken is the Sennilier art supply store, a bastion of French art supplies since 1887. The energizing Tour de France wove through the city on one day bringing crowds, but mostly it was quiet in the mornings when I was painting. A quick stop for coffee and I was ready to go.
