Caudebec-en-Caux – The Artists – Overview and Map
Artists (painters, photographers, etc) from all over the world have come, and are still coming, to Normandy to paint. The fantastic light, a plethora of subjects and the ease of getting there made it a hotspot for all sorts of artists.
The city of Caen, like Le Havre, Deauville, Trouville or Dieppe, saw a large share of these artists.
Below is a map with the places where these artists created their works of art. I’ve only listed one place per city they painted in, and this map is limited to Caudebec-en-Caux and its surroundings since there were many artists to catalog.
NOTE: Caudebec-en-Caux has recently merged (2016) with other towns nearby and is now called “Rives-en-Seine“. However, since the artists called the town by its original name in their paintings, we will continue to refer to the place by its old name.
NOTE: Click on an “art” icon on the map below to see a painting of the artist, their name and then click on the artist’s name at the bottom of the painting to see all his paintings of that area (in a new window).
NOTE: You can zoom in and out of the map! BUT remember, that one icon may hide another one if you are zoomed out too much.
