Two people recognized a photo from a town in France that was featured in another GwinnettForum Mystery Photo recently. However, this time it was a far different view. Ruthy Latham Paul of Norcross realized that the photo was from the town of “Honfleur in the Normandy region in France. The town is located on the south bank of the Seine estuary. This is a picturesque harbor town of homes with front sides covered with slate. This town inspired many painters, such as Claude Monet, Gustave Courbet, Eugene Boudin and Johan Jongkind, with their paintings called” Ecole de Honfleur,’ which was a step in the development of the Impressionist movement.” Another person recognizing the town and not being tricked by a second appearance was Susan McBurney of Sugar Hill.” The photo came from Tom Merkel of Berkeley Lake.
