The exhibition is dedicated to the oeuvre of the most prolifi c member of the “Boissonnas dynasty”, Fred Boissonnas (1858-1946). It sheds light on a whole aspect of his career that is both underappreciated and crucial: his journeys on the Mediterranean Sea, which he spent the fi rst three decades of the 20th century roaming in search of light, of the Great Greece and free Egypt, of Homeric settings and Biblical landscapes.
