Chez Felix, Antibes

Photo by Stephen Bohn
Aside from the restaurant Chez Felix, where the writer Graham Greene once frequently lunched, this little square in Antibes contains the Aguillon fountain, built as a tribute to the Brigadier d'Aguillon of the royal army of King Louis XVI because he restored the Roman aqueduct and brought drinking water to the town in 1785.

Antibes

Although I only spent a day in Antibes while exploring the south of France, it's one of the places that is still very vivid in my memory. I look forward to a return visit some day.

Antibes from the Wall

Looking back towards the town from the ramparts near a particularly sharp looking wrought iron gate.

This colorful balcony caught my eye while visting the town of Antibes on the Mediterranean. I've added a sketch action, as well as a texture from Shadowhouse Creations.

Antibes Revisited

This is an alternate version of the image I posted on September 26, 2011. For this one I used a texture from les brumes to give the harbor of Antibes a slightly grittier, somewhat chillier mood.

Gazing out to Sea

The promenade in Antibes is a great place for a stroll, or just sitting back on a bench and enjoying the view. Textures from Shadowhouse Creations gave my photo a watercolor look.

Fort Carre, Antibes

We visited Antibes on a beautiful, sunny day and the first thing we saw after departing from the train station and walking into town was the 16th century Fort Carre.
