Marseille Old Port

Jul 08, 2014

Watercolour of Marseille, 22" x 15" on Saunders Waterford Rough 300gms.

The Old Port of Marseille, a rectangular expanse of water running into the centre of the city and reminding me of a bigger version of my home town Bristol's own waterfront. The view is looking up to the Basilica Notre Dame de la Garde, the highest point in Marseille and a great view over the city. The view is framed by the local coast guard boat on the left and smaller vessels on the right. Hundreds of yacht masts clutter the middle ground.
