* CECIL ROCHFORT D'OYLY JOHN (BRITISH 1906 - 1993), HAUT- DE- CAGNES, SOUTH OF FRANCE

oil on canvas, signed, titled verso 'On the Hill above Cagnes- sur-Mer, between Cannes and Nice'
framed



image size 46cm x 66cm, overall size 54cm x 74cm

Note: Occupying a unique site on the Côte d'Azur, Haut-de-Cagnes has managed to retain all the mystery of the strongholds of Provence, while at the same time opening up to visitors. A maze of steep, cobbled streets, vaulted passageways, flower-filled staircases, eye-catching houses, unusual viewpoints and artists' studios, Haut-de-Cagnes reveals itself at every turn. The medieval village at the top of the château hill is the historic part of the town of Cagnes-sur-Mer and was classified as a "historic site" in 1948, to this day it has managed to preserve the serenity of village life, away from the hectic pace of the Côte d'Azur. The patina of the centuries, the stonework steeped in history, the shady, narrow, flower-filled streets, the unusual views over the Mediterranean and the Mercantour, all combine to attract visitors in search of authenticity.
