"Each time I view this work, I am carried back to my childhood, when my family and I would vacation in France to visit my father’s relatives. Paris was frequently included as a stop on these trips, which entailed visiting the famous neighborhood of Montmartre. The highest natural point in the city, Montmartre represents the essence of French artistic heritage and culture, even to this day. It is no wonder that French-born Bernard Lamotte would want to capture this famed location of French art history in all its forms, including this atmospheric perspective of a romantic drizzling day." - Gabe Chevalier, Sales & Marketing Associate
