Musée de l'Annonciade (Annunciation Museum) Review

Just inland from the southwest corner of the Vieux Port stands this extraordinary museum, where the legacy of the artists who loved St-Tropez has been lovingly preserved. This 14th-century chapel, converted to an art museum, alone merits a visit to St-Tropez. Cutting-edge temporary exhibitions keep visitors on their toes while works stretching from Pointillists to Fauves to Cubists line the walls of the permanent collection. Signac, Matisse, Signard, Braque, Dufy, Vuillard, Rouault: many of them painted in (and about) St-Tropez, tracing the evolution of painting from Impressionism to Expressionism. The museum also hosts temporary exhibitions every summer, from local talent to up-and-coming international artists like Georges Rouault, whose specialty is landscapes.
