About This Image

Can you imagine Paris without the Eiffel Tower? I bet not! It’s probably the singe Paris landmark that is literally known around the world. Show someone on the other side of the earth a picture of the Eiffel Tower rising into the sky and they will recognize it. That’s not an easy level of fame to reach!

It also means that its equally hard to find a unique angle on this Paris landmark. It’s probably been painted or photographed or sculpted from pretty much any angle you can imagine. That definitely makes it a difficult subject! In a strange way, that’s freeing. There are no unique angles but there’s unique lighting, unique skies. These are the things that change with each passing moment and day.

So this is my take on the Eiffel Tower on an unusually sunny winter day. I was wondering along the pont de Bir-Hakeim when I spotted this older couple in a small park. As they admired the tower, they were standing in the same great golden light that was bathing that Paris landmark in the distance.

But one of the most interesting aspects of this scene to me was this beautiful statue with a figure on horseback with lance aimed at the Eiffel Tower. For life of me, it reminded me of Don Quixote jousting at windmills. It was years later before I found out this statue is La France Renaissante – France Reborn. The figure aiming their horse at that great Paris landmark is none other than Joan of Arc. I guess my Don Quixote reference is far more unlikely but it has stuck for me in the form of the title.

Regardless of the subjects of the scene, I love this unique take on that most famous Paris Landmark, the Eiffel Tower. There’s a dynamic feeling in that powerful light and there’s the very human spirit of the happy couple standing together on a cold winter afternoon in Paris. Clearly just happy to be in the moment.

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
