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.
