FOUR MONTHS LATER - BACK TO MARSEILLE
Back to Marseille. When I had enjoyed those lovely four days in March with Pierrette, we had discovered Marseille together ( 50 YEARS LATER. ..... chapter 1 21-23rd May). We went to see the exhibition on Faces at the Vielle Charité. However, the trip was to discover Marseille. When wandering around the city as we did, I saw posters for two exhibitions that interested me - The Paul Delvaux at the renovated Cantini museum and another at the Mucem on the Carnival taken as a subject. These I would come back for. I left Paris is spitting rain and arrived in Marseille in brilliant sunshine and warmth. What a pleasure. There was no time to lose as the trip was for « nearly 48 hours » - so I set off for the Cantini. The directions given by the hotel and on a map seemed very clear. They were not. Looking down this little street, would you imagine that there was a museum there? and it is not the sign on the left but further down..... I had first encountered Paul Delvaux in Edinburg
