Liudmila Kondakova Handsigned Limited Edition Serigraph on Paper:"Les Marches Parisiens"Item #: CHAL-1TitleLes Marches Parisiens Edition::Limited Edition Serigraph 125 Image size: 24" x 36" About the Print: Imagine...no malls, no supermarkets, no parking problems or traffic, just the time to stroll, shop, dream, and choose. In Paris, this is a way of life, and Liudmila Kondakova shows us the way to "Les Marches Parisiens," the Parisian Shops. A chat with the manager of the charcuterie turns into a spirited discussion about which imported ham is best for omelettes, and which for picnics. Next door, the shopkeeper insists on offering you a taste of the newly-arrived vintage, one of your favorites, to accompany the delicious cheeses she tempts you with. Load your purchases into your bicycle basket, and away you go. Liudmila Kondakova paints this delightful scene with tender reminiscence; the years she spent in Paris offered many opportunities for her to explore the city in just this way, by strolling and taking the time to enjoy an experience as ordinary as grocery shopping. Somehow, a wine shop in Paris just seems more...romantic. The dappled sunlight and spring's blossoming trees on this quiet side street only add to the aura of this remarkable city. Once again, Kondakova turns the everyday into the extraordinary, as we stroll through "Les Marches Parisiens." |
