Photos taken: August 2005

Some pictures taken from the picturesque village of Les Arques, a few miles from Cazals in the Lot region of France.

A good two pictures to start with.The first is on the road to Cazals, however we aren't too sure what it is. The second is a building in town.. again..im not sure of the significance.

Art work here. On the left is a boar stuck in the tarmac. Yes, it is as weird as it sounds. On the right are some sculptures by a fellow named Zadkine who used to live in Les Arques, and is apparently quite famous for his modern(?) cubist art.
