"The Hill of Montmartre," Vincent van Gogh, April-May 1886.

This is a fun picture if you've ever been to Paris, or seen movies like Amelie. Here we see a fairly unremarkable view of a hill with a windmill, some dotted buildings, a stone quarry, and some grass...but this is Montmartre, now crowned with the fabulous Sacre-Coeur basilica and a bustling urban center, covered with houses and businesses.

It's a reminder of how cities and urban spaces grow and change...whether that's bad or good I leave up to you.

From the Kröller-Müller Museum, Otterlo, the Netherlands.

An Impressionist landscape. A hill, dotted with buildings and with a windmill at the top, also has some green grass coming in. It's the hill of Montmartre, which is now a bustling urban cityscape. There's a fence going down part of the hill, and the workings of a stone quarry can be seen.

I took this when I was in Paris in 2019. I was also there 15 years prior and I remember there being a fancy Coke ad on the building to the left. I'm going to need to look for that photo.

Location: La Machine du Moulin Rouge (Paris, France)

This is the exterior of the moulin rouge from across the street from it. In the foreground, you can see a stripped crosswalk. In the background, you can see a red storefront with a large red windmill on the roof. In front of the Moulin Rouge, there are large red flower pots that are there to keep people from driving into the building.
