No.58 The Eiffel Tower


This is painting No.58 entitled, "The Eiffel Tower in Fiery Sky" painted in June 2009.I like the sense of distance i achieved with this piece which sometimes can be tricky to perfect if you want the painting to have that feeling of majesty.For me this painting conjures up visions of the tragic death of Franz Reichelt who leapt to his demise from the tower in 1912 wearing what he believed was a coat that would also act as a parachute.This was sold on ebay to Devon,England.
