Richelieu dans ses Douves

From the 28th July until the end of August, an exhibition of prints is on display in les douves at the exit of the Porte de Chinon in Richelieu.

This follows on from a photographic competition held in the town earlier this year in partnership with the local photographic club. The theme of the competition was 'Richelieu sous tous les angles'.

Nineteen images were selected from the winning entries and each has been printed on canvas, 2.50m x 1.50m

Here are one or two of our favourites...

The whole exhibition provides an innovative and interesting way of viewing the town. Encouraged by the support of local businesses and traders, the organisers hope it will lead to more and bigger events in 2013.

If you get the chance it is well worth a viewing.
