Postman Cheval's Ideal Palace
To mark the 50th anniversary of the listing of the Ideal Palace as a Historical Monument, Fabrice Hyber paid tribute to Postman Cheval through a collection of over 50 drawings, created especially to honor the occasion. In this impressive collection of images, you can discover the story of Ferdinand Cheval and his inspirations. Ranging from his work as a baker. We can now appreciate the importance of its influence in the construction of the Palace, up to his desire to share his work with the rest of the world, opening the Ideal Palace to the public in 1905, offering a truly marvelous visiting experience.
