It's a postcard. The ideal place to escape the vicissitudes of everyday life, to stroll, to unwind, to marvel at. This place is a charming and elegant little village called Essoyes.
If it presents an artistic and cultural interest, due to the installation of the Renoir family as you'll see in the following rooms, this canton populated by a little less than 600 souls, is a small architectural and natural treasure where time seems to pass with a leniency you can't imagine anywhere else.
To immerse you in this Essienne atmosphere, we have chosen to begin this exhibition with a first room dedicated to the beauty of this place whose magic operates instantly. At the end of the exhibition, you will find postcards presenting Essoyes in the early 20th century.
