Description:
- Discover this attractive 16th-century chapel in the heart of the picturesque little village of Le Cannet, which is three kilometers (two miles) from Cannes' center. Built in stone, it was decorated in 1989 by Tobiasse, a very famous artist from this region (he lives in Saint-Paul de Vence for most of the year). He designed a mosaic pediment, stained-glass windows and painted wood panels, which make up a symbolic fresco, full of life, poetry and spirituality. Tobiasse was born in Israel in 1927. After living in Lithuania for a few years, he arrived in France in 1931. He came to Nice in 1950 and never left the region.
