    Villa Bashkirtseff in Nice

    From 1871 to 1877, the Bashkirtseff family villa in Nice served as a setting for Marie’s early ambitions. Here, surrounded by the social life she adored, Marie immersed herself in private studies, driven by her vision of fame. Today, Nice commemorates her with a dedicated street and a permanent display of her work in the Musée des Beaux-Arts.
