A visit to Pau

The Musee des Beaux-Arts in Pau was rather a disappointment. I expected a rich, historically important town like Pau to have quite an art collection. They're very keen to tell you about the Degas 'cotton office in New Orleans', maybe because it's one of the few good works.

However, I did stumble across Roger Lambert-Loubere's 'Corbiere Vermeille'. I found this photo here  when searching for links. Sorry I can't put it up here, as it belongs to the self-portrait taker.

There is currently an exhibition of R L-L's work in Lille.
