A listed Hispano-Moorish garden with a collection of 12 bronze busts of Flaubert and others.
Classified as a historical monument, this site is the work of the Spanish novelist and politician, Vicente Blasco Ibáñez, who imagined in this space a real Hispano-Moorish garden, colored with ceramics from Valencia and Menton. During your walk, discover the collection of 12 bronze busts representing Boccaccio, Dostoyevsky, Flaubert, Goethe, Hugo, Poe, Stendhal, Tolstoy, Zola... commissioned to the Latvian sculptor Leopold Bernstamm. A superb rotunda dedicated to Cervantes is decorated with one hundred illustrations of Don Quixote. Artistically clever.

très beau jardin
Au hasard de nos promenades à Menton nous sommes tombés sur ce jardin très particulier. Quel plaisir d'admirer ces céramiques et de tenter de deviner les allusions et références littéraires de la décoration. En effet la villa et le jardin ont appartenu à un écrivain et homme politique espagnol, Blasco Ibanez, et l'art andalou y est à l'honneur. Une curiosité à ne pas bouder. C'est tout près du Jardin Botanique Val Rahmeh
