From the seam of ochre which extends from Rustrel to
Roussillon by way of Viens, Gignac, Villars and Gargas,
we extract with great care twenty-one shades of natural
minerals. These coloured clays, yellow ochres, orange
ochres, red ochres, greens, blues, violets, whites and
greys, these black and beige coloured sands and these
brown soils are pounded in a mortar then sieved into different
sized particles. A sketch is drawn onto a wooden panel
and the different coloured minerals are applied by hand
onto the surface which is prepared with glue. Artificial
or natural light reveals the nuances and the relief of
the picture according to its orientation.
Permanent exhibition at the mediaeval Château of
Simiane la Rotonde : April, May, June, September : from
15.00 to 19.00. July and August : from 10.30 to 12.30
and 15.00 to 19.00
