PARC DES PRIX DE ROME - JARDIN JACQUES CHIRAC
This 16,000 museum-garden pays tribute to the Prix de Rome of Valenciennes.
Inaugurated following the death of President Jacques Chirac, this 16,000m2 garden-museum pays tribute to the Prix de Rome of Valenciennes. This is a competition created in 1663 and organized by the Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture. Valenciennes won no less than 21 of them. The park now exhibits several reproductions of these works of art as the bust of Henri Harpignies by the sculptor Corneille Theunissien. The park is located in the extension of the Jardin des Floralies.
