Delius: Idylle Printemps & Summer Night on the River

While not as well known as the Barbizon area of France, Grez-sur-Loing has long been a source of interest for painters. They came from many countries and stayed in the Hotel Chevillon and other local hostelries and were often joined by writers and composers in this lovely, out-of-way village. Some, such as Delius, remained and lived out their lives here while others, like Carl Larsson and Robert Lewis Stevenson, met their future wives here. This video is just a sampling of the work that many painters produced in Grez over the years. Today several institutions and foundations offer living and working space in Grez in buildings such as the refurbished Hotel Chevillon.
