TABAC DE LA SORBONNE

"Tabac de la Sorbonne" 1996

I painted this for my lawyer, France Guinet. It was a gift for her husband. He used to hang out there when he was a student.  The place is still there. I went by the other day.  It was actually empty when I painted it. The people are invented.

LIBRRAIRE DAGUARRE Paris 14

"Librairie Daguerre" 1993
It was a great bookstore. The patronne is the blonde climbing the ladder. I painted it during the very short season when little girls sell daffodils in the street.. The little girl was ravi.
