This linocut is made from my original sketch inspired by the famous Café de la Paix located in a magnificent Haussmanian building across from the Opéra de Paris. Opened in 1862, it was frequented byTchaikovsky, Zola and Maupassant at the end of the 19th century.
To make my art prints, I transfer my original sketch onto a block of lino which I cut out with special gouges. I hand pull my art prints on a press, one at a time.
Each linocut is a unique and original piece of art. Slight differences in each print are inherent in the process.
The print is sold unmounted and unframed but fits in a standard 18 cm x 24 cm frame.
