The Roaring 1920’s – Reliving the Artistic Revolution on the French Riviera |
|
|
This tour is infused with anecdotes about the 1920’s, the time of Cole Porter and Ella Fitzgerald
| Overview | |
|
This tour is a cultural exploration of the art scene of the 1920s. American writers, such as Scott Fitzgerald, John Dos Passos and Henry Miller were all connected to the French Riviera during this time. The “roaring twenties” was the time of a new expression of freedom with the creation of jazz, and the European artistic revolution. A region that you will discover through the eyes, the works and the life of those giants of literature and their friendship with the most prestigious names of that time; from Pablo Picasso to Peggy Guggenheim, passing by Isadora Duncan and Cole Porter. This is a fascinating, atypical journey into the artistic revolution through some of the most prestigious sights of the Riviera. Your guide will give you a rare experience of the Riviera: see the villa where Fitzgerald wrote “The Great Gatsby” or read a page by Hemingway on the beach where he located the action of “Garden of Eden”. There are many interesting surprises in store for you.
