Martin M. Miles' photos with the keyword: Chapelle du Rosaire de Vence

Though I was early that day, I was too late. About three weeks too late. The "Chapelle du Rosaire" was closed. I learned from the paper, pasted onto the locked door: "Fermeture annuelle 15.11. - 20.12." So I could only see the building from the sidewalk of the street, what leaning over the fence, produces "slanted" photos like this one. This chapel was regarded by Matisse himself as his "masterpiece. It is a very complex work of art and has a wonderful background. Many of the artists around Matisse (e.g. Picasso) did not like what Matisse was doing here. Matisse started this "project" at the age of 77 - and spent more than 4 years.
