Did you know that Fernand Léger had collaborated with his students for one of his greatest paintings?

Impossible not to linger on the colorful facade of the Fernand Léger Museum in Biot when you pass by. Inside this building inaugurated in 1960 are hidden paintings, ceramics, drawings and stained glass windows by the French artist and his friends, about whom Julie Gutierrez tells us.
