Description

The lavender lady Escoffier had a beautiful washing machine at home. But she liked to go wash the river.
Mrs Mundet would have wanted to leave her place among her sheep to no one. The farmer Madame Laugier lived in her paradise without ever taking a vacation. Photos are sometimes misleading.
 
Let's meet these 12 women from the Alpes Maritimes and the Var. They bear witness to a rural world that was gone, where gestures were a rhythm of daily life.
 
Thanks to this book, you are participating in the backup of the 100,000 photos from the archive of André Abbe.
Thanks to all the volunteers who support the Abbe Photo and Passadoc associations.

Opinions about the book "Women of Provence"

Like all the publications of Passadoc and Abbe Photo, the production is very careful and ensures a successful presentation of the superb photos of André. The layout with the delicate reminder of the mimosas yellow on the cover pages and on the map of Provence: refined! Add the pagemark and the protective silk paper closed by a pastille also aimed at recalling the objective: 87,000 photos left to digitize. A REMARKABLE achievement. Congratulations also to Mrs Fanchtein!

The packaging is neat and quality, the object and photos are good invoices.. He now adorns and evokes Provencal scents in my office.

Every photo, every text reprojects me when I accompanied my parents and grandparents in all the field work (especially the harvest). It's a hymn to the "real", with deep roots. Delicious Proust madeleines, that do good.

They're talking about the previous book!

This is the memory of our region.

Friendly and moving tour season after season, of which we really do not get tired.

Under the sun of Provence, a small village between the Mediterranean and Argens. To remember.
