Must See

Joan Miró’s Le Cadran
Solaire (1973) is one of
many statues in his
multi-levelled maze
of trees, water
and gargoyles.

Temporary Giacometti
exhibition inside the
Fondation Maeght

Did You Know?
The foundation drew
Duke Ellington, Samuel
Beckett, André Malraux
and a galaxy of artists
to its early events.

The Chapelle St-Bernard
was built in memory of the
Maeghts’ son, who died in
1953, aged 11. Above the
altarpiece is a stained-
glass window by Braque.
