The Montparnasse district

Ateliers d’artistes

Named after a hill, the Mount Parnasse, by the local students, this district was at its peak during the roaring twenties. The montparnos, a community of local artists, embody all together the “Ecole de Paris”. They often frequented the now famous cafés and brasseries such as the Rotonde, the Dôme, the Coupole or the Closerie des Lilas. We will comment the sites of many of the famous artists’ workshops where Pablo Picasso, Chaïm Soutine, Tsuguharu Foujita, Othon Friesz, Simone de Beauvoir, Anaïs Nin, Ernest Hemingway, Rainer Maria Rilke, Man Ray, Dora Maar and Eugene Atget worked.
