Place du Tertre in winter 

Place du Tertre is so nice in winter with fewer tourists and the whole space reserved for painters. Sidewalk cafes will return with warmer days.

Place du Tertre and Sacre Coeur

 The grey sky invites black and white images.

Sacre Coeur as painted by Utrillo

Utrillo painted this side street and it has not changed much since then.

Montmartre side steps

These are some side steps in Montmartre, not the long ones leading to Sacre Coeur.

You will find them as you walk down to Metro Abbesses coming from Bateau Lavoir.
