100th Year Anniversary of the Eiffel Tower Dedication Ceremony
As part of the 100th year anniversary of the Eiffel Tower, I presented an oil painting of his 1987 "The Vertical Mile - A Climb For Health" to Eiffel Tower Officials, Mr. Christian Marequier and Mr. Bernard Hebert on June 16, 1989. Silva scaled the Eiffel Tower 7 1/2 times (2 hours, 2 minutes, 54 seconds) to complete the Vertical Mile. This event drew international attention by demonstrating that it is never too late to begin leading a healthier lifestyle.
And if you ever get to the Eiffel Tower, check out the offices under the north tower - the picture hangs there. (1989) It might still be there!
