Latest Watercolor Painting: Notre-Dame Sentinels
 | ||
| Notre-Dame Sentinels |
This is an original 12.25" x 10.5" watercolour on top quality Italian Fabriano Artistico watercolour
paper. It represents some of the gargoyles or chimeras on top of the
Notre - Dame Cathedral in Paris. From the top of the cathedral's towers
the stone creatures have had a magnificent view of the city for
centuries. To see them up close, you have to climb almost 400 steps.
The The staircase is narrow and the steps are fan-shaped, so skip the
climb if you're claustrophobic, wearing high heels or simply don't want
to die of exhaustion. I have managed that climb twice in my
life...easily when I was a University student and very painfully a few
years ago.
This painting may remind you of such a climb...or may spare you one:-)
This painting will need to be matted and framed

Beautiful painting and beautiful story behind it.
