Bistro Near Montmartre

Yesterday I finished this painting of a little bistro near the bottom of Montmartre, Paris. I painted it from a photo I took in the Autumn of 2003. They make a very nice omelet and the vin ordinaire was quite decent. The painting is oil on cotton canvas and measures 14 by 18 inches (35.6 by 45.7cm).
