• Anotace

  Enter a land of tranquil cobbled squares, rustic earthenware, and lavender fields. In this survey of Provençal homes and interiors, discover all of the rural charm that enraptured artists as van Gogh and Picasso. From lavish chateaus to quiet retreats, this edition features insightful captions, enthralling double spreads, and beautiful photography.

  The textures and tones of dreamy Provence

  Nestled in the south of France, bordering the Mediterranean Sea, is a land renowned for its lavender fields, fine cuisine, golden sun, and dreamy landscapes.
  
  The region of Provence has inspired such masters as Alphonse Daudet and Vincent van Gogh. So enthralled was Paul Cézanne by the Mont Sainte-Victoire that he immortalized it in a series of paintings. We enter his Provence studio, which still looks the same as it did over a century ago, as well as the house where Frédéric Mistral, 1904 Nobel Prize winner, lived and wrote. We also admire the wrought-iron staircase and embroidered curtains of the Hotel Nord-Pinus in Arles, which hosted the likes of Napoleon III, Jean Cocteau, and Picasso.
  
  Across picturesque villages perched atop rocky hillsides, quaint gardens filled with olive trees and the heady scent of lavender, tiled rooftop terraces and warm, ochre tones: this book gathers the region’s most remarkable homes and interiors and paints a gorgeous picture of Provençal living.
