Career of Light Gift Set: The ideal gift for art lovers
The town has also attracted many artists, including Vincent Van Gogh, who was inspired to paint no fewer than 150 canvases by the light and landscapes of the region. A walking tour from the Saint-Pierre-de-Mausole monastery to the Estrine museum allows you to admire 21 reproductions of his works.
The Alpilles has also been home to the composer Charles Gounod, the writer Alphonse Daudet and Frédéric Mistral, the Provençal poet who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1904. The poet's former home now houses the Musée Frédéric-Mistral, a place for his work, literary meetings and children's workshops, as well as a photo and video library.
The gift pack includes two tickets for the Carrière des Lumières exhibitions in 2022, as well as a special edition Carrière des Lumières totebag.
