Georges Darasse
travelled a lot in Italy and in the south of France
Passionate about light, he set up his easel everywhere and painted in the open air.
Villefranche-sur-Mer, one of his favorite towns, is a small town in the south of France, close to Nice on the Mediterranean coast.
The painter likes to represent his hills overlooking the sea and the reflections of the sun playing with the waves, or the simple local life of the people of the village.
