Original Toronto Star caption: On the heights of montmartre near the basilica of Sacre Coeur is the Place du Tertre; where you can find a busy throng of artists enjoying the Paris sunshine and displaying their works. You can sit at an outdoor cafe and watch; buy paintings or have your portrait done in minutes. Though most artists are from other lands and their customers are tourists the square has true atmosphere of Paris.
