"The famous Dome Cafe in Montparnasse has long
been celebrated and renowned as an intellectual gathering place
since the beginning of the century. The first prominent cafe in
that area, it created and disseminated gossip, and provided message
exchanges and an "over the table" market that dealt in
artistic and literary futures. So often frequented by the famous
and soon to be famous painters, sculptors, writers, poets, models,
art connoisseurs and dealers and all sorts of characters, the Dome
eventually became the pulse of the American Literary Colony and
the focus for artists living in the Left Bank."

"Near the cafes, parks, on every street corner,
always the flower seller, . . the vendeuse. How many times I stopped
to say hello and to admire the selections and buy a small bouquet
to bring back to my studio."
