They were carried out in the Japanese fashion, with woodblocks and limited colouring. He signed his name in the manner of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=VaP4wt1n3w0\">Japanese engravers like Hiroshige or Hokusai<\/a>. After a few prints, the blocks had to be thrown away. He would position himself in various places of the Capital City and <a href=\"https:\/\/dailypost.wordpress.com\/photo-challenges\/peek\/\">take a peek<\/a> at the Eiffel Tower from the most improbable places. The Tower would then become central to his sketches, even though it was sometimes hidden. I am an admirer of Riviere\u2019s work, and I have my eyes set on <a href=\"https:\/\/antimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/a9dd7-riviere.jpg\">one of his engravings<\/a> of my beautiful native Brittany.
