Description
Calais is a town and major ferry port in northern France. In the centre of the old town is the Place d'Armes, in which stands the Tour du Guet, or watch-tower, a structure built in the 13th century, which was used as a lighthouse until 1848 when a new lighthouse was built by the port.
This digital painting is from a photograph taken circa 1895. These great old colorized photographs remember a time gone by. But time has deteriorated many of them. My goal is that through painting them they are restored to life. I hope they touch you as they do me.
