la maison art nouveau


This house is in the center of Amboise and is embellished with touches of art nouveau.  The city apparently thinks it is worthy enough to see that it includes the house on signs directing you to tourist sites.  This doorway with the fanciful sculpturing has earned this house the name "the bug house" by us Anglophone locals.

    1. There are a number of interesting details on this house, but unfortunately most are difficult to photograph. Ah well.
