...How different are Van Gogh's paintings from Antwerpen and those, we know better, from France. For northern people certainly Paris must be the city of light... if you compare that to north cities, of course.

Hello Alicia

Quite a surprise, this shot. But clicking through I rediscovered your empty street (with people), so, then again...

The Van Gogh links are a definite plus, even including a canvas I'd somehow never seen. Great picture showing the bend in the river that created our city & the dark light of in between: the most northern city of the south, the most southern city of the north.

Cheers from Antwerp

Benny
