'Paris- The Day the Seine Froze Over' - A signed, limited edition silkscreen print by British contemporary artist Sir Peter Blake. Available individually or as part of the Paris Suite portfolio box set.

'Paris- The Day the Seine Froze Over' is inspired by the many occasions on which the Thames used to freeze over (a regular occurrence between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries). Blake imagines the same event taking place in Paris, and we see people making camp on the frozen surface of the Seine river. The contrast between the mild blue skies and green leaves of the background and the extremity of the frozen wastes of the foreground is a joy to behold. Blake doesn’t hold back on the winter imagery; including fur-wrapped sledgers driving reindeer and dogs. This drama is tempered by a pair of ducks waddling across the ice.
