- Various coins
The steamer Polluce sank between Porto Azzurro and Capoliveri in 1841. These are some of the many coins recovered recently. - Napoleonic coins
There were a lot of coins. A lot. These are Napoleonic. - Snaky jewellery from Polluce
That is some interesting jewellery: snakes! - Various coins
These are the golden coins recovered from the Polluce. - Toilet from Polluce
Yes, they had such wonderful toilets (with water pumps). - Les Arlequins by Chagall
Marc Chagall, Les Arlequins (1922-1944), detail. I kind of like the detached leg. - Le Cirque Bleu by Chagall

Marc Chagall, Adam and Eve Expelled from Paradise (1961). Self-portrait in the top right corner. Animals look away but the mother with the child "confirms this rather optimistic vision of the Sin". - La Rose Bleue by Chagall
Marc Chagall, La Rose Bleue (1964). - Paysage Méditerranéen by Chagall
Detail of the Paysage Méditerranéen tapestry (1971). A superb depiction of La promenade des Anglais. And a superb tapestry. - Paysage Méditerranéen by Chagall
A tapestry by Chagall (1971). He claimed he was born for the second time once he moved to Côte d'Azur (Vence). The left sun is above St. Paul de Vence and the right sun above Nice. - Blue!
The Creation of the World, stained glass window. By Chagall, of course. Not many artists get to co-create their own galleries. - La Création de l'homme by Chagall
Marc Chagall, The Creation of Man (1956-1958), detail. And just like that, there's someone hanging upside-down on a pole, while God is creating Adam. - Le Paradis by Chagall
Marc Chagall, Le Paradis (1961), detail. The Temptation of Adam and Eve. This is just beautiful. - Adam et Ève Chassés du Paradis by Chagall
