On September 24, 2021 in the early afternoon, I arrived in Mondovi after 20km of walking.
I needed to refill my stock of watercolor paper, but as usual in Italy, the shops were close between 12 and 4 pm.
I took the opportunity to sit on the terrace of the café, in front of the town's fine arts store, to feel the passage of time and the atmosphere of the place: Piazza Santa Maria Maggiore.
This calm of early afternoon, the color of the facades and the light of the square inspired me for this painting.
I decided to prolong the discovery of Mondovi one day more, and set up my camp for the night in this green space in height, not far from the city center.
In front of my bivouac, there was this huge building which seemed to be disused.
What a surprise it was to be awakened by a sweet female voice, who through the window of what turned out to be a high school, was reciting her lesson and asking questions to the students.
As I left the tent,this math teacher followed by her students said to me a good morning with a smile on her face and all the kindness in the world.
When I dismantled my tent and packed my stuff, the most curious of them enjoyed the show.
I made myself as discreet and efficient as possible, decamped to finally immortalize this funny moment with my brushes.
What a beautiful sight on this small city surrounded by green space of mountain range.
Fr:
Le 24 septembre 2021 en debut d'après-midi, j'arrivais à Mondovi après 20km de marche.
J'avais besoin de me réapprovisionner en feuilles d'aquarelle mais comme bien souvent en Italie, les commerces ferment entre 12h et 16h.
Je profitais de cette occasion pour m'installer sur la terrasse du café, en face de la boutique de beaux arts de la ville pour ressentir le passage du temps et l'atmosphère du lieu: la Piazza Santa Maria Maggiore.
Ce calme de début d'après-midi, la couleur des façades et la lumière de la place m'ont inspiré.
Je décidais de prolonger la découverte de Mondovi une journée de plus et j'installais mon campement pour la nuit, dans cette espace vert en hauteur, non loin du centre ville.
En face de mon bivouac, il y avait un immense bâtiment qui le semblait désaffecté.
Quel fut ma surprise d'être réveillé par une douce voix de femme, qui à travers la fenêtre de ce qui se révélait être un lycée récitait son cours et posait des questions à ces élèves.
En sortant de la tente, cette professeur de mathématiques suivi par ses élèves me dire bonjour avec le sourire aux lèvres et toute la gentillesse du monde.
Quand je démontais ma tente et empaquetais mes affaires, les plus curieux d'entre eux profitèrent du spectacle.
Je me fis le plus discret et efficace possible, décampais pour enfin immortaliser cette instant cocasse du bout de mes pinceaux.
Quelle belle vue sur cette petite ville entourée d'espace vert de chaîne de montagne.
This is a beautiful one...I love how you made the view come out well.
