Andrew Sullivan has great success getting people to figure out the location of random photos taken around the world, so I’m going to try it too. Except this is a photo of a painting. It’s signed by someone named J. Gaston, and pretty obviously seems to be a Paris street scene. But is it? And which street? We’re giving this to my sister-in-law in a couple of weeks, and I thought it would be nice if I could tell her what it’s a painting of. Anyone know?
UPDATE: It’s the Porte Saint Martin on St. Martin Boulevard in Paris. Thanks to Rjerrard and Skeptc for the ID. Pictures here and here.
