Collectif Artistes du Village - The Fountainhead


There's an art exhibition in the village of Gorbio at the moment.  It's called Dedans/Dehors which means Inside/Outside and so you'll find art displayed on the houses of the medieval village and also inside the restored presbytery.

This painting depicting the fountain built in 1882 is by Geraldine Rebuffati, who is the organiser of Le Collectif Artistes du Village.

    The fountain and its courtyard really have character.

    Lovely, lovely. You've probably told us before, Jilly, but do you know the reasoning behind the medieval passages? Is it simply architectural, or were they made for their beauty even then? Or something else?

    To me, there is nothing quite so beautiful as the shape of an archway.
