About This Image

I guess in a city as old as Paris, the Eiffel Tower is still the new kid on the block, but in my eyes, it feels like such an iconic piece of the city, as if its always been there. There was something about that timeless feeling that inspired this vintage Eiffel Tower print. This print is also a collision of reality with fantasy in those beautiful stars falling over that iconic architecture.

It feels strange today but the Eiffel Tower was never intended to be around as long as it has been. It was built on the Champs de Mars to act as the entrance to the 1889 World’s Fair. It was only intended to stand for the next 20 years before being dismantled. It’s hard to believe now but the tower was built to be easily removed! Funny how that worked out isn’t it? Of course that never happened and today it’s a Paris landmark.

There is simply something about the graceful architecture you see in this vintage Eiffel Tower print that feels perfectly suited for a sepia tone fantasy. That beautiful iron lattice tower has that 19th century flair that still speaks of an era when steam engines were de rigueur. And it was an era of progress when it seemed as if the sky was the limit. It’s hard to imagine anything as grandiose as the Eiffel Tower being built today with such an intentionally short lifespan, isn’t it?

For a period of time, the Eiffel Tower was the tallest man-made structure on earth. The first construction to surpass the great pyramid in Egypt in thousands of years. When I imagine the audacity of that, it feels like humanity was reaching for the stars once more in that golden age. And that is the inspiration for the stars falling in this vintage Eiffel tower print.

Whether or not you’ve stood on the Champs de Mars in Paris, I think this sepia-toned fantasy of that Paris landmark will speak to you as it does to me. I would love it if you took a moment from your day to let me know what speaks to you most about this Paris artwork!

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.
