I was riding my motorbike from Toulouse to the UK last summer and drove down this street. I didn’t write down the name of the town but it was somewhere near Le Mans I think, It was raining so I just took some quick photos, but if I could remember where it was I’d go back and photograph the whole street.

I print by hand using a baren, but on this print I was using the round end of a knife to push the paper down into some deep areas of the block. This gave it some quite drawn, monoprint type marks which I like.

This print is taken from a drawing I made of some Roman marble reliefs in the museum. I’m afraid I dont know why she was stuck in pot, that’s just what the label said.
