Visit of the Museum
European manufactures, famous artists, majolica ware, the Japanese influence in ceramics, dolls’ and children’s tea sets, earthen ware, and contemporary ceramics… displayed on two floors in the stable building. A remarkable retrospective of a period when the Decorative Arts and the Arts of the Table were at their peak.
Christine Viennet’s “Trompe l’oeil” which established her early reputation, her naturalistic work in the footsteps of Bernard Palissy, as well as her recent fantastic sculptures of amazing sea creatures, are all a part of your visit.
The visit leads you then to the Château : to an exceptional collection of Palissy ware from the XVIth century to the present.
The last but not the least of your visit is the extraordinary “Mermaid’s room” where Jean Viennet, pupil of Salvador Dali, has painted a mural fresco of unique sea life surrounded by Christine’s stunning sea creatures.
