Colmar Little Venice
$22.00
A small quarter of Colmar where the Lauch slows almost to a stop and the half-timbered houses lean over the water in yellow, ochre, and faded rose. The colour was a working signal once. Fishermen, tanners, gardeners marked their trades by their paint, and the trades are long gone but the colour stayed. Flat-bottomed boats run from the bridge on Rue Turenne. In December the whole quarter goes glass-and-cinnamon for the Christmas market. The rest of the year the Saint-Pierre Bridge holds the picture by itself.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
