of twelve, its beaches and its paradisiacal creeks make it a village
where one can live well and breathe well.

woman emerging from water, "Naissance de la Femme" vu
par Sallan", a woman balancing a cornice on her head, "Cariatides
Aurelia" vu par Lechevallier".

a symbol of the disembarquement of allied troops in 1944, along
with many others.
