French Village Bakery Canvas Print

The flavour of France is captured in this original photograph by ZoeSPEAK, on a Wrapped Canvas Print. Taken in the town of Hourtin, in the wine country of the Medoc, the photo shows the village bakery in the afternoon sun. The shadow of an old fashioned street lamp stretches across the sidewalk onto the wall below the display window. Over the window is a striped awning with the words "PATISSERIE" AND "PAIN" ("pastry" and "bread"), and a bold red stripe across the cream coloured building. An old circus poster and a placard for ice cream bars add colour to the scene. Leafy green vines climb over the stone wall on the side of the shop, throwing their shadows across the walls. Part of a taller building in shadow, a walkway and blue sky complete the picture. The photo was taken in 2002.
