Online Videos of my visit to the rocky plateau of Bibémus in Aix-en-Provence

Posted by Marshall on June 09, 2007 | Link It

Here are the first videos that I have processed and made into movies today - there's about 20 minutes of footage that cover 4-5 hours of actual time I spent touring Bibémus in Aix-en-Provence with Christine Boulet, my guide on this tour.

Part 1 - Entry into Bibémus

Part 2 - about 2 hours into my walk.  I could see why Cezanne came to Bibémus in Aix-en-Provence to paint

Part it's the longest movie (about 10 minutes)

but has the most interesting motif, a magical "tree breast" about halfway though the clip.  Also keep in mind the end, a dinner at the Le Clos De La Violette, the best dining experience in Aix-en-Provence, so I'm told (it's certainly the most expensive).  Other posts I've done recently on the Paris-Aix Trip include-

Keep an eye open for additonal posts on the Paris-Aix trip in upcoming days on www.ArtNewYorkCity.com
