Heleen (the Netherlands) sent this postcard with a painting of the famous lighthouse or
Ar-Men, and an adventure from 100 years ago:
Achille Beltrame (1871-1945). "The keeper of the lighthouse of Ar Men, on the French coast, had remained isolated from the mainland for 53 days due to bad weather conditions. He managed, thanks to a dangerous acrobatic journey, to return to land (1926).
The same lighthouse appears on the following postcard sent by Fabienne (France):
And some more lighthouses in Brittany, all sent by Fabienne as well:
