134. Stevenson in Pont-sur-Sambre


The english writer Robert Stevenson of the nineteen century made a cruise upon the rivers Meuse, Escaut, Sambre and Oise. He went in Pont-sur-Sambre on a summer evening, and it was just one of that beautiful red sunset on the river as Stevenson came in. He decided to spend the night in Pont-sur-Sambre and he found a bed in one of the two inns where he spent a good night before cruising southly along the forest of Mormal. He related all this in a travel journal where he wrote also about the tower and about the beautiful landscape here. At the edge of the Sambre, at the place where he saw one of that beautiful sunset near the church, they put its sign-board with a portrait of Stevenson and a part of the french translation of the part of his book, An Inland Voyage where he speaks about Pont-sur-Sambre. So, I made the photography of the sign-board at the edge of the Sambre.
