We came upon this amazing sight - the back walls of houses painted very realistically. I didn't crop the cars out to show the scale of this painting.

Cathedral d' Images-#1

04 Jul 2009 184
An extraordinary exhibition held in former bauxite mines in Provence. The hollow caves and pillars are used to project images, constantly changing and overlapping each other. You can walk around and through the images, seeing new ones as you walk around. Music is played to accompany and enrich the experience. This year the artist chosen is Picasso - well worth a visit if you're near Les Baux.
