In tribute to Jean-Marie Gassend, architect-archaeologist, watercolorist and writer, who passed away in 2025, this exhibition-file invites you to rediscover the extraordinary voyage of Pytheas.
A Massalusian astronomer and explorer at heart, Pytheas was the first Mediterranean to cross the North Atlantic, beyond the frontiers of the known as far as Thule (Iceland). Jean-Marie Gassend's watercolors reveal his journey. Texts and visuals provided by Edikom.
