BIARRITZ POSTER

In this original work by Lotza, we go to Biarritz in the Basque Country to swim at the Grande Plage. Known as the main beach in Biarritz, the Grande Plage de Biarritz was called "the coast of madmen" at the beginning of the 19th century, because therapeutic bathing was practiced there to restore sanity to the insane. The turning point came in 1854, when the town became the holiday residence of Napoleon III and his wife Eugenie. You will notice that the Villa Eugénie, located in the background of the illustration, was built by Napoleon III for his wife Eugénie. The building was built in the shape of the letter E which we can see from a little height.
