Stretching from Saint-Tropez to Menton, the French Riviera reveals, beyond its clichés, a mosaic of landscapes: the pine forests of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, the wild coves of the Estérel, the ochre alleys of Biot, and the hanging gardens of Menton. This land of light, which inspired Matisse, Picasso, and Chagall, reveals a more authentic side through the eyes of those who defend its heritage, far from the spotlight.
The French Riviera is undoubtedly the most caricatured destination in France; and that is precisely what made Charlène, a native of Marseille, want to tell its story differently. Far from the yachts and the glitter, this edition gives a voice to seven personalities rooted in this region: Isabelle Maeght (Maeght Foundation), Guillaume Lanier (florist), Olivia Cognet (sculptor-designer), Adrien Gannac (citrus grower), Antoine Pierini (master glassmaker), Gwendolyn Berger (winemaker), and Gilles Traverso (photographer). They all share the same desire to keep a heritage greater than themselves alive and to pass it on.
Across 145 pages of interviews, insider recommendations, and an illustrated detachable map, set off to discover a more charming and grounded French Riviera: from the pine forests of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez to the hanging gardens of Menton, from the wild coves of the Estérel to the ochre alleys of Biot, and on to the villages of the Nice hinterland.
A geography enriched by an exceptional artistic heritage, where Matisse, Picasso, Léger, Bonnard, Miró, and Chagall found their light
