Roter Sand

Where once has been the famous Grands Sables de Groix, il y a une petite plage remaining, above les pins, le pin a droite is by now ausgetrocknet and soon will drop down to the sea. The lino has been named "feu les Grands Sables" by William.

close to Les Sables Rouges here is red sand, roter Sand, sable rouge

this building has been sitting on the sands stuffed with beaching equipment

the bunker now up in the air was accessible from the beach

sable rouge, one of the few red beaches of the world, but not pure iron oxide red as Kaihalulu on Maui, but sable à grenats, mio-pliocene sands of the armorican massif, red, black and white.

12 Port Tudy encore

11 Les Phares de Port Tudy

back is la pair des ancres,

found aussi à Port Melite, maison du capitaine Pejol

Les boites de Tristan Calloch

Trouver à l'écomusée de Groix, die Thunfischbüchse von Tristan Calloch.

A second type of thuna can, a large one, has been found by Franck à la décharge, and fit into an aquarelle in 1995. Last year we rediscovered le tableau in the shop of Tristan Calloch at Port Tudy. See here Tristan with the picture in April:

10 - la vague de Hokusai à Pen Men

shows the Hokusai-adaptation, a less known view of the many Fudjijama views, l'envers. For a wave to travel around the world it takes an estimated 1000 years. The back is the top of le Phare de Pen Men from a lino carved 10 years ago:

9 - Le Manège

The card is a version of the lino with various small alterations. The back shows the inventory of le manège in 2007. Faites vos choix. Pour les enfants to send a postcard just crossing their ride(s).

8 - Le Bourg

The new lino Le Bourg combines the main elements of this central place of Groix, for the tourists, église, thon, vins et marées, the bleu, l'écume des jours, le safran, le manège, et perhaps you discover some people to be seen not only in summer.
The back presents a lino adaptation of Bretonne, an etching from Armand Seguin, an etching he made at the age of 26 around 1895. This reminds on various activities of central Bourg. An alternative would have been a madonna with child from the église, thinking of the mothers and their children at le manège, but does this child really look like a child?

7 - Port Lay

The card resembles the lino. The back should reflect a major activity of this tiny port, la conserverie Jégo. So far I could not spot an original boite - so this is a vision

6 - Phare des Chats

The card is close to the lino, with a few minor alterations, the back is an assembly of 3 Littorina obtusata, a major snail collected à la plage près de Pointe des Chats. We come close to the triskell. This has not been an easy choice, there are beaucoup des objects people look at or carry away.
