Harbour Bar, Gourdon

These seas around here used to be full of this kind of fishing boat. - I much admired this mural on this wall, obviously done by a person(s) of great artistic merit.

See Pips.

It certainly was good George. As a very amateur artist, I cannot think how they managed to get this so good.

We pondered this mural for some time whilst we ate our picnic of sandwiches and local chips from the adjacent building chippy. Very appropriate painting for sure. Glad you liked it. ~ Herb

Yes Herb, mant talented people about, we have one living here in Thetford who paints full size murals on the side of a Pub usually commemorating some event from ww1 or 2.

One would think, almost a lost art but thankfully there are still some artisans at work with these scenes. Of course you live in an area which has a lot of WW2 history to be preserved. ~ Herb

Peter, it is always great when a viewer sees other little things in the picture such as this gull. Glad you enjoyed it. ~ Herb
