Èze

My old Michelin green guide calls Èze, "étrange village isolé en nid d'aigle sur son piton qui domine la mer de 427 m, constitue un site de premier ordre," "[a] strange isolated eagle's nest village on its peak dominating the sea at 1383 ft., constituting a site of the first order." It is located along the Moyenne Corniche, midway between Nice and Monaco. The pencil sketch on paper here is approximately 7" by 10" original size, drawn on site in December, 1971.

Nice Vieille Ville

The location listed below is not the place where the sketch was done, but it gives the general atmosphere. Original size: 7" by 12", done on site, pencil on paper, December, 1971. The drawing image was posterized in 2011 using Moodboard.
