Purchase Paseo del Parque, a fun and relatable short story that is float-mounted and can be hung as artwork in any home or workplace.

The scene is set on a sidewalk a stone's throw from Paseo del Parque, a marquee park area in southeastern Málaga, Spain. There is a sibling rivalry unfolding yet through it there is a calmness and normalcy to the familial skirmish. The story ends with a subtle acknowledgement to the rise of the professional woman—one of the most popular pop-culture topics that occurred in 2019.

This is a 11" x 14" float-mounted piece of artwork that serves well hung in a den, kitchen, office or bathroom.

Specifications include:

  • 11" x 14" photo printed; float-mounted

  • Non-glare PVC dead matte finish; eliminates reflection while maintaining colour contrast and detail

Paseo del Parque is part of Andrew Schiestel's Short Story 2019 Collection.

Paseo del Parque

By Andrew Schiestel

Father and mother in front, young daughter and son in rear; the family, Galician-descent, walk enthusiastically along the Paseo del Parque in Málaga. The girl, shorter and smaller than her older brother turns to him, takes her right-hand, palm-open, and slaps his right-forearm, five-fingers and all, so riveting any passerby could hear. The boy yelps with all he could muster, looks to the parents who don’t turn around—enjoying their conversation too much—takes his left hand and performs an in-kind gesture. The sister yelps, looks to the parents who don’t look back, enjoying their conversation some more. The four would enjoy themselves very much that day in the Centro. The boy and girl grew up playing much football: the girl a professional, the boy almost so. The girl always took much initiative. 

 

The hero image is of the east-entrance of the Paseo del Parque in Málaga, Spain. The Paseo del Parque is uniquely positioned in the middle of several attractions: southeast of the Centro, north of the sea, northwest of the La Malagueta (a bullfighting stadium) and southwest of the Alcazaba. The photo was taken on the steps leading up to the Alcazaba.
