Here are some images viaThe New York Times T Magazineof the totallyamazing and beautifulVilla Santo-Sospirowned by the Weisweiller's of Paris.Cocteau wasquite a frequent vistor,as can be seen from all of his "modifications" to the villa.The mosaic as you walk in is choice,as is the viewof the"Baie des Anges".That's Cap d'Antibes in the background.Not bad....Francine Weisweiller was quite a looker.No wonder Cocteau lover her;he loved anything thatwasbeautiful.I'll take the vase please.No, not the hideous grape covered majolica one,the other one.Thanks.Great shot of a great shade.You can watch an interestingfilm by Cocteauof the Villa Santo-Sospirhere.(Say thay 3 times fast.)It's the second film.
