#177B Patrick Allain Fleuriste, original watercolor,9" x 11"
You walk down a beautiful little street in Paris - 51 rue St Louis en l'Île...

You pass a pretty little flower shop and stop and take a few pictures...

And then keep walking. And you don't give another thought to the dear little hole-in-the-wall flower shop...

...until you get home and months later look it up...

Patrick Allain Fleuriste has been around for 25 years (!)
It's facade has the distinction of being the most photographed, drawn, and painted of any in the entire city! And it's known for it's medieval stained glass window and the 17th-century architectural details etc. Who knew? I didn't even look up or get a proper shot of the entire facade...
Oh well that's Paris for you. Lots of wonderful secret places you can walk right by without a clue. I will go back and I will look up this time.
If you want to go look up, here's the plan they provide. The flowers are nothing to sniff about either by the way :)
BONNE JOURNEE
