A lifein colour
It was in 1883 that a prominent artistic figure first made this French country house their beloved home, adapting it over the following decadesto fulfil their great professional and familial needs. The housewas enlarged to accommodate a substantial family, and a barn next door converted into a studio, although this isn’t where our homeowner is known for creating their influential works. The bright interiors reveal a passion for colour, although it’s what lies through the window that really gives the game away as to who lived here.
