France: Provence and Brittany
Tired of Paris, Vincent van Gogh and Paul Gauguin went south to Arles. Cezanne was obsessed with Mont Sainte-Victoire, one of Provence’s mountain peaks near where he lived. Gauguin had previously painted in Brittany, which also drew Eugène Boudin, Paul Sérusier, and Paul Signac.
