a colorful café
This terrasse on Rue de Turbigo, captured my attention first for the colorful café chairs, but the Cafés Richards cups were my favorite. The mixture of colors and patterns remind me of the simple design and secondary colors of Fiestaware. After the 2010 trip an artist friend, Carol Schiff, created this beautiful interpretation of the cups, a daily reminder of my Paris obsession.
Café Étienne
14, rue de Turbigo
75002, Paris
3 couleurs de chaises et 4 couleurs de tasses, cela fait un peu beaucoup.
ReplyDeleteLove how colorful the chairs and cups are!!! A great twist to the typical Paris outdoor cafe!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the painting as well...
Such glorious colours. I expect the owner to be wearing a white hat with a huge orange bow N'est Pas?
ReplyDeleteYes, just like Fiesta Ware! I love the painting too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo, love the colours and detail. Beautiful painting as well.
ReplyDeleteColourful indeed.
ReplyDeleteMakes me want to hop on a plane!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the shout out.
What happy colors on this gloomy winter morning! Hope you're safe and warm ... I would like to be sitting sipping on a café and munching on a croissant in Paris instead of sitting at the airport drinking mediocre coffee :)
ReplyDeleteI should like to be there right now! I do love Carol's painting, too!
ReplyDeleteYes, those happy colors are definitely appreciated here in GRAY Portland today! Looks like a great place and you do find those!! Glad you share them with us, Genie!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

The colours of the chairs and cups really do please the eyes, and that's a lovely painting!
ReplyDeleteGreat mix of colors—and I love that painting too!
ReplyDeleteYou're right. They are kind of like fiesta ware, and the chairs are also mixed colors, too. It must be their thing.
ReplyDeleteI like your friend's painting.
