B.Bought from an eBay seller in Menigoute, France.Location: Google Maps Street View / Historypin"The Maison de Tristan ... is an exceedingly picturesque old facade, to which you pick your way through a narrow and tortuous street, - a street terminating, a little beyond it, in the walk beside the river. An elegant Gothic doorway is let into the rusty-red brick-work, and strange little beasts crouch at the angles of the windows, which are surmounted by a tall graduated gable, pierced with a small orifice, where the large surface of brick, lifted out of the shadow of the street, looks yellow and faded. The whole thing is disfigured and decayed; but it is a capital subject for a sketch in colors. Only I must wish the sketcher better luck - or a better temper - than my own. If he ring the bell to be admitted to see the court, which I believe is more sketchable still, let him have patience to wait till the bell is answered. He can do the outside while they are coming." - Henry James, A Little Tour of France (1884) |
