Description:

The unique beauty of the French Riviera has made it attractive for both artists and aristocrats. Learn about their lifestyles and the chefs d’oeuvre (masterpieces) they left behind on this tour to the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild, the Matisse Museum, and the Marc Chagall National Museum.

The Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild, modelled on the Renaissance palaces of Venice and Florence, is built on a hilltop with views of the sea from every side of the house. Explore its lavish interior, pass by the pink columns and marble arches of the patio, marvel at the superb painted ceiling in the grand salon, and admire the Venetian bed covered with Chinese silk. Enjoy some leisure time in the incredibly landscaped gardens. Designed around themes like Spanish, Japanese, and Provencal, all are so splendid that you could roam them for hours.

Head to the hill of Cimiez in Nice to visit the Matisse Museum. Marvel at the extraordinary paintings of this major French artist, from his first works in 1890 to the later pieces from the end of his life. Learn about his style and technique and see some of his personal items exposed beside his work.

End your day at the national museum dedicated to the work of Russian-born painter Marc Chagall. This museum houses Chagall's series of 17 paintings illustrating scenes from the Bible, painted by Chagall and given to France in 1966.
