Varengeville Temptation


On the way back from Dieppe yesterday afternoon we discovered one of the real reasons why the village of Varengeville was so popular with so many painters. Apart from being frequently visited by Monet, Pissaro and their like, Georges Braque lived here for most of his life and I believe was visited by Ben Nicholson, Patrick Heron and Rothko. Maison Boivin may have been one of the reasons. The best pastries we have ever seen and tasted.
