This media file is a photograph of a ceramic tile sign displaying a map and information about "Bastides du Pays d'Aix" (Bastides of the Pays d'Aix) in Rousset, France. The sign features an illustrated map with stylized drawings of buildings, gardens, and roads, including the Aix-en-Provence area with highways A8 and RN36. Prominently displayed is a large illustration of an ornate building with multiple stories, balconies, and arched windows, representative of a "bastide." The text on the sign is in French, Italian, and English. The French text explains that "bastides" are summer residences of noble and parliamentary families from the 17th century, characterized by opulent apartments and grand gardens with basins, fountains, and sculptures. It describes them as having the appearance of castles. The Italian text conveys a similar message, inviting discovery of these castle-like country dwellings near Aix. The English text echoes this sentiment, describing them as majestic dwellings with a castle-like appearance. Several specific locations are labeled on the map, including "La Gaude," "La Mignarde," "Pavillon Lanfant," and "Bouc-Bel-Air." Directions for reaching some of these locations are provided, mentioning routes like "Route des Pinchinats" and highway exits. The sign also includes a logo for "ESCOTA" and a stylized blue symbol. The background of the photograph is a textured, dark surface, likely a wall or ground, indicating the sign is mounted outdoors. The lighting suggests it is daytime, with no specific weather conditions evident.
