Most of Montparnasse is in the 14th<br />
Arrondissement (district) of Paris. The<br />
Jardin de Luxembourg lies on the<br />
border in the 6th Arrdondissement<br />
La Coupole, an Art Deco café-cumrestaurant<br />
with it's columns painted by<br />
artists including Chagall. Further still on<br />
Avenue du Maine is the artists’ colony Cité<br />
des Arts in a leafy, cobblestoned cul-de-sac.<br />
Here 30 artists’ studios were constructed<br />
using material salvaged from the Exposition<br />
Universelle de Paris de 1900. One of them<br />
was rented by Russian painter Marie<br />
Vassilieff, who ran a canteen for impoverished<br />
painters there, the studios are still in<br />
use today.
