The collection shifts attention from the wealth displayed on Aix's façades to the things people used, collected and celebrated. Look for faïence, furniture and objects associated with local festivities, including the speaking Nativity tradition. These small details help explain a city that can otherwise seem defined mainly by aristocratic mansions and famous painters.
