Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald enjoy a unique and passionate relationship with Provence and the Riviera between 1924 and 1929. Hyeres, but also Saint-Raphael, Cannes, Cap d’Antibes, Nice, Vence, Monaco, Avignon, Arles… bear witness to the couple’s extravagent lifestyle, icons of the jazz age.
From their first summer stay, which was not yet fashionable, to the last one with all innocence left behind; between literary successes and suicidal gestures, Scott and Zelda mix in with the Southern French countryside, which entirely permeates their work.
