Françoise Frigola painted a picture entitled
Chateau de Vauvenargue.
The Chateau de Vauvenargue is located in the village of
Vauvenargue which near Barrage de Bimont in Aix-en-Provence in southern France.
The old Chateau was once owned by Pablo Picasso, in fact the great painter died
there.
Morphy's most famous game, entitled the Opera Game,
pitted Morphy against the Duke of
Brunswick and the Count Isouard de Vauvenargue. Very little, and nothing
that I could find, has been written about Isouard, but he apparently came from
that small picturesque village southeast of Paris.
If anyone has any information at all, I would be interested in
learning.
