In Lorgues, local art comes to the table
At Carnets de Voyage, the lounge walls become a gallery of local artists, and the garden an open-air antiques market. You lunch, you wander, and sometimes leave with a canvas under your arm — in the heart of the green Provence.
The Lorgues lounge, wall after wall, turns into a gallery
Here, art isn't admired behind glass: it lives with us. On the lounge walls, canvases by artists from Lorgues and the green Provence take turns through the seasons, between Mediterranean light and treasured finds.
You dine surrounded by colour, you glance up between two courses, you wander from one work to the next. Each painting tells a corner of the Var — and nothing is fixed: the selection changes, the house breathes.
We wander from one canvas to the next.
Carry on the artistic visit
Local art in Lorgues unfolds room by room. Follow the thread, from the gallery to the garden and on to our story:
Admire, linger, and sometimes take it home
Fallen for a canvas? Most of the works on show are for sale, directly with the artist — no middleman, no auction house. The painting that kept you company through a meal can leave with you.
In the garden, the open-air antiques market takes over: ceramics, salvaged furniture, travel trunks and weathered treasures await the curious eye. A gentle hunt, between the tables and the plane trees.
Fallen for something? It's yours.
A stage for the artists & antique dealers of the Var
Painters, ceramicists, treasure-hunters of the green Provence: the house opens its walls and its garden to you. From the lounge-gallery to the antiques market, we love introducing local talent at a table that travels. Write to us to exhibit.
