This is an original 1920 sepia halftone print of the crumbling castle ruins near the commune of Les Baux-de-Provence in Provence, France. The term
baou refers to a rocky outcrop, so it's not difficult to see how the area got its name. As one of the most picturesque villages in France, and one with loads of history, Le Baux-de-Provence relies heavily on its steady influx of yearly tourists.
