Bateau-Lavoir
Place Émile-Goudeau, Montmartre
Quartier des Grandes-Carrières, 18th arrondissement
Paris, July 2004
“The Bateau-Lavoir (Washhouse Boat) is the nickname of a building in the Montmartre district of the 18th arrondissement of Paris that is famous in art history as the residence and meeting place for a group of outstanding early 20th-century artists, men of letters, theatre people, and art dealers. It is located at No. 13 Rue Ravignan at Place Emile Goudeau, just below the Place du Tertre. A fire destroyed most of the building in May 1970 and only the façade remained, but it was completely rebuilt in 1978.” (Bateau-Lavoir, Wikipedia)
