House allowing to discover how the famous painter of the Fine arts Foujita lived.

Fujita Tsuguharu (1886-1968), a student at the Tokyo School of Fine Arts, arrived in France in 1913. He became Léonard Foujita following his conversion to Christianity. In 1960, he discovered this small rural house, then in ruins, and fell in love with it. He bought it and refurbished it down to the most intimate details. On the top floor, his studio remained intact. Brushes, models and murals reveal all his talent. It was here that the artist sketched what was to become one of his greatest works, for the Notre-Dame-de-la-Paix chapel in Reims where he is buried.
