Discover the charm of old Bergerac through this beautiful illustration by Michel Négrier, which invites us to step back in time and rediscover the atmosphere of this Périgord town along the Dordogne River.
The artwork depicts the historic district of Bergerac, near its former port—a site that was once the hub of intense commercial activity. Traditional houses with stone facades and roofs of slate or flat tiles rise one above the other, overlooking the river. Amidst this architectural ensemble stands a building with a distinctive silhouette, often called "Château Henri IV" but known by its true name, the Hôtel Peyrarède; it now houses the Tobacco Museum.
Through his precise lines, attention to detail, and historical sensibility, Michel Négrier skillfully recreates the face of old Bergerac, highlighting the importance its port once held in the economic life of the Périgord region.
This 99-piece mini-puzzle is easy to assemble, offering a delightful moment of relaxation and discovery.
It is an ideal choice for those who love history, ancient towns, and the heritage of the Périgord.
Once completed, it becomes a charming collector’s item or a unique gift, celebrating Bergerac and the authenticity of its architectural and river-based heritage.
