Starting the day with breakfast on the back deck
A quick lap of the circuit
Looking for something different to do in Monaco, we
decided to visit the Nouveau Musee National de Monaco. We walked from the yacht up the hills of
Monaco using the lifts to take us from one street to another. Housed in the Villa Paloma, the gallery contained
a series of special exhibitions that were most unusual. The photos tell the story of American artist Duane
Hanson’s work, which is one of three major exhibitions featured there.
Can you select the real person?
In addition to the art, the views were stunning from the
gallery and the adjoining Museum of Archaeology.
The other section of the gallery is housed in Villa
Sauber on the other side of Monaco. The
featured exhibition was Dietrich Fezzoli: Villa Marlene. This is a fictional location decorated with
pictures, posters, films and sculptures to highlight the actress and assert her
status as a glamour icon.
Two very modern museums and not another soul there other
than ourselves!
For contrast, we walked back to the Casino and found
thousands of people, dozens of Ferraris, and plenty of action. I am sure you can work out something about
Monaco from this!
