Did you know?

A whole host of artists have spent time or settled in Pont-Aven, the most famous being Paul Gauguin. But what people often don’t know is that Gauguin wasn’t the first artist to visit Pont-Aven. The first was Robert Wylie, an Anglo-American painter who visited the village on the advice of Henry Bacon. Following his trip to Brittany and Pont-Aven, Wylie settled in Brittany, seldom straying from the region after that.
