Visit the Marc Chagall National Museum, a villa in a quiet Nice neighbourhood devoted to the artist's biblical-inspired works. Move through its compact galleries and settle in for the documentary on his life.
Full description
The Marc Chagall National Museum is dedicated to the Russian-born French artist and centres on his biblical message works, shown in a modest villa setting. The collection is not large, and visitors suggest about ninety minutes if you also watch the documentary on the artist.
It is a quiet, reflective visit that suits couples and admirers of Chagall, though his style is not for everyone and queues can form, even in the low season. The surrounding neighbourhood is pleasant and residential, adding to the calm atmosphere.

The works are well curated,…
