POTD: La Maison Rose

La Maison Rose Paris, France 2013

This bistro was also the subject of a painting by Utrillo, although I didn’t try and recreate the composition on this one. Rick Steve’s guidebook on Paris says Utrillo used to hang out here, as did Picasso and Gertrude Stein. He goes on to say that today “it serves lousy food to nostalgic tourists.” Still looks good as artistic subject matter though.]]>
