Hi Chris,
I'll appreciate learning what you discover. Of course, it will also be useful
to
know what kind of person they sell to - tourists (from afar) , locals, regional
tourists ... ...
Another possibility is to persuade a cafe or similar place that is frequented
by visitors of all sorts, to hang images, for sale.
It is probably a matter of suiting the ideas of the shop-owner, then those of
the clients - whose characteristics you have to discover. Then producing to
suit.
