MAISON BLEUE
A series of miniature buildings covered with fragments of ceramic and recycled glass.
Near Port-Guillaume, the Maison Bleue is a unique example of art brut, comprising a living quarters and a garden, where a series of miniature buildings (chapels, mills, mausoleums), covered with fragments of recycled ceramics and glass, have been erected. This open-air mosaic, listed as a Monument Historique in 1991, is the work of Portuguese exile Euclides da Costa Ferreira (1902-1984). It is similar to the Palais idéal by Facteur Cheval, in the Drôme region, or the Maison Picassiette, in Chartres.
