It was last tuesday!
I sketched this last Tuesday when we were in Paris. But I had forgotten my box of watercolours so from a photo I have added colour. And in its heyday there was a lot of colour in this Paris club, frequented by the impressionists - including Picasso, Modigliani, Apollinaire and Utrillo and other creative locals from Montmartre. Sheil & I did join the current artisans one night a few years ago - the singing was great but not so the wine! You can have a look inside but you have to imagine it full of singing of artisan songs.
The Lapin Agile was also popular with questionable Montmartre characters including pimps, eccentrics, simple down-and-outers, a contingent of local anarchists, with a sprinkling of well-heeled bourgeoisie out on a lark - just like Burgundy's on a Thursday night!!.
