Ian Borthwick, Pont Neuf Reflections, 2020
During the pandemic, the sounds of silence were echoed by the stillness of the waters in the River Seine. Revelling in the abnormally calm conditions and knowing where the sun was due to come up, I rushed to take up position on the Pont des Arts before dawn. This is perhaps my favourite view of Paris: from the elegant simplicity of Pont Neuf (the oldest standing bridge in Paris, 1578), the romantic Square du Vert-Galant at the western tip of Île de la Cité, the spire of La Sainte-Chapelle, the tower of Quai des Orfèvres, and far left, the Tour Saint-Jacques whence pilgrims still leave on the ‘camino’ to Santiago de Compostella. As for the unsightly crane, it stands as a marker of another heartrending moment in history – the reconstruction of Notre Dame ravaged by fire in April 2019.
This is a limited edition of 12 prints (plus two artist proofs).
Printed on Photo Rag Ultra Smooth paper and mounted to Kapa board.
