With a masterful stroke of his pencil, Dufy can capture the calm atmosphere of the
hilltop Provençal villages with their peaceful landscapes to the excitement of the
Carnival goers who have joyfully donned their costumes to celebrate this festive
tradition in Nice.
The Casino Promenade Pier, an inexhaustible source of inspiration for Dufy, will

I don’t follow any system. All the laws
you can lay down are only so many
props to be cast aside when the hour of

MUSEUM
MACM (Musée d’Art Classique de
Mougins)
One of the most picturesque villages in Provence,
home to some of the greatest artists and a
renowned culinary haven, the village of Mougins
is a must-see destination nestled between sea
and mountain on the Côte d’Azur.
Christian Levett has chosen this prestigious
location to found a museum and share his
extraordinary collection with the public.
At the Mougins museum (MACM), modern and
contemporary artworks are interspersed with
Roman portrait statues and busts, Greek pottery
and jewellery, Egyptian reliefs and sarcophagi.
The great masters of the 17th and 18th centuries
interact with Picasso, Chagall, Braque, Matisse,
Hirst, Gormley, Quinn...
The connections made between artworks
and artists emphasise the influence of classical
civilisations on the art world and give a new
resonance to the works on display.
On the upper floor, the largest private collection
in the world of Graeco-Roman weapons and
armour does not fail to stand out. Ancient
beliefs, stories and myths provide an inspiring
background to the visitor’s journey through the
collection.
