This black and white photograph was taken while in Paris this summer .We rented a flat for 4 months in Montmartre. Everyday I would take a stroll through the streets and one day I met a French Lady walking her dog. She told me how much Montmartre has changed. She said all the artists have left now as it is too expensive to rent flats there . I felt this gentleman was waiting for so long that he was ready to get up and leave, though not sure if his friend would show or not. I thought it captured the poignancy of the moment., should I stay or should I go ? In this piece, I've captured the essence of a timeless moment, juxtaposing the bustling potential of a Parisian café with the solitary repose of an individual. The black-and-white palette strips the scene of distraction, encouraging a focus on the emotional layers at play—communion, nostalgia, the stark beauty of everyday life. It's a visual narrative that speaks softly but deeply, imbuing any space with the soulful energy of Montmartre's heartbeat. This limited edition in black and white print will be printed on photo paper .The dimensions refer to the actual image size, the final print is slightly larger, allowing for a white border on all 4 sides, and a signature bottom right and an edition number bottom left. All prints are issued with a certificate of Authenticity.
