Travel further back in time with Olive trees at the beginning of Roquebrune trail from 1892. The artist captures the tranquility and serenity found along this scenic path lined with ancient olive trees—a true testament to Provence's timeless allure. Delve into local history with depictions of Old Castle Bormes les Mimosas and Old Tower and Islands Hyeres—both masterfully rendered on canvas during the 19th century.

But not all stories told are idyllic; Pierre Zaccone's engravings reveal darker chapters from Toulon Bagne—the penal colony that once existed.
