Beskrivelse
Discover the charm of Provence, a stunning region in southern France known for its lavender fields, exquisite cuisine, golden sunlight, and breathtaking scenery.
A captivating glimpse into the art, history, and lifestyle of Provence through its iconic homes and landscapes.
Provence, bordering the Mediterranean Sea, has long been a source of inspiration for great artists and writers like Alphonse Daudet and Vincent van Gogh. Paul Cezanne was so captivated by Mont Sainte-Victoire that he created a famous series of paintings dedicated to it.
This book invites you inside Cezanne’s Provence studio, preserved just as it was over a hundred years ago, as well as the home of Frederic Mistral, the 1904 Nobel Prize-winning poet. You’ll also get a closer look at the elegant wrought-iron staircase and delicate embroidered curtains of the Hotel Nord-Pinus in Arles, a place once frequented by notable figures such as Napoleon III, Jean Cocteau, and Picasso.
Wander through charming villages perched on rocky hills, explore quaint gardens dotted with olive trees and the fragrant aroma of lavender, and admire tiled rooftops glowing with warm ochre hues. This book beautifully showcases the region’s most exceptional homes and interiors, capturing the essence of living in Provence.
