Pont Neuf Paris

Just the most beautiful bridge in Paris when I painted it, a friend informed me that it was a painting of Pont Neuf, thus the title. It wasn’t until the painting appeared on the cover of The Artist’s Magazine that I was corrected. According to the magazine’s editor they have never received so much correspondence about a cover image. Apparently the concensus of Francophiles thought it to be a lovely painting, but incorrectly identified. Perhaps I should have changed the title to “Pont Alexander III”, but it got so much attention I realized leaving it misidentified was a great conversation starter for other Paris aficionados.
