I don't know who this French author is, but his monument is in a cemetery in Montmarte, France.

Thank you Star Shotz. I liked that this was not some famous statue that some photographer had made famous. It was mine, if only for a moment.

Thank you chienfou. It takes a bit of PP to make a stone monument look soft.

Very nice Bob. He looks very relaxed like he belongs there, just sitting to rest a bit and enjoy nature!

Thank you Carol. He must be thinking some soothing thoughts because it almost looks as if he has a halo about him.

Very nice rendering, Bob. I think the sculptor did a great job making him look very peaceful in a very pastoral setting. And you did a very nice job capturing the scene.

Thank you Steven. I'm glad the sculptor left the bottom half of the monument almost unfinished ..... blends in nicely in its natural surroundings.

This monument is the one of Alphonse Daudet.
I also photographed it during a trip in France, at Montmarte's cimetary.

Thank you for the information Nique. I was hoping someone here would recognize the monument. I appreciate it.
