If you are an artist in France, then you have certainly heard of, if not have already visited a town called Honfleur. The small picturesque marina, surrounded by shops, restaurants and houses of different colors, is a favorite stop for artists and tourists. Some of the more notables were  Gustave CourbetClaude Monet,  Johan Jongkind and Eugène Boudin.  Today, you see many more cameras that you do canvases. But the scene, nonetheless, is just as beautiful today as it was years ago.
