  This work weaves through the landscapes that inspired Van Gogh, Cezanne, Matisse and Renoir, with lavender fields and rolling hills. It explores the glamour of the Riviera, from the Alps to the Pyrenees: Monaco, Cannes, Nice and St Tropez; and visits the medieval villages of inland Provence. 'From the Alps to the Pyrenees, there's something for every taste: relics and monuments of a past that goes back a million years; medieval villages, some all but abandoned Brigadoons and others immaculately restored; world-class collections of art; mountain wildernesses and national parks; lively music and theatre festivals; ski resorts and wine roads; casinos and nightclubs; superb markets and restaurants that rival Paris' finest.'
