About This Painting:   It was a chilly day for the summertime in Paris, even drizzling from time to time.  When I was walking to search for painting ideas in the neighborhood of Montmartre, nobody was out on this narrow street.  Under the overcast sky, gray buildings standing on both sides suddenly felt like lifeless giants.  I was cold and couldn't feel inspired enough for some reason.

I thought a nice warm bowl of soupe à l'oignon (onion soup) wouldn't be a bad idea on a day like this.  I decided to go to the end of the street to see the windmill and leave.  It was at that time this couple appeared from around the corner.  That moment was my inspiration for this painting.  Do you feel l'amour in the air?  ... Valentine's Day is just around the corner, too ...
