On the steps of the Sacré Coeur
⠀
My daughter and I sat right on the steps. Just arrived in Paris, the first thing we went to Montmartre. On the way, we bought delicious soft ice cream and, turning our heads 360 °, enthusiastically looked at everything around. Summer, some unrealistically huge cherries, the smell of cheese and coffee, carousel horses.

High on the hill of Montmartre rises the white Sacré-Coeur Basilica. People come to look at it and see what opens up in Paris when you sit on the steps. Someone brought drinks with champagne, couples kiss, and only wide-open surprised eyes immediately betray tourists.

I remember it - all-consuming happiness and unreality. It was this feeling of warmth, happiness and harmony that I wanted to convey in this picture.
