The creation of this map was as much inspired by the textures and gold leaf used on the architecture and signs in Paris. After texturing and painting the background in several layers to have a sort of rich, leather look, I created the houses and buildings with bronze, gold, and silver acrylic paint by putting the paint into a syringe with a plunger. I doted them around each block on the map to give a bit of height texture to them. The river has authentic gold leaf applied to it.
The painting is floated onto an archival mat, 8-ply archival mat, with a simple gold frame. The frame expense of $500, is included.
