Sheer inspiration. Palais Ideal is the embodiment of perseverance. Postman, Ferdinand Cheval, born of humble beginnings with no art education built this in the course of 33 years using only his spare time. Madness has a name too it seems.
The late Ferdinand Cheval (1836 to 1924) was just a normal guy and was one day inspired because he tripped over a rock. He kept the rock and found more rocks the following day… What comes next is as per the below pictures.
He walked 18 miles a day doing his rounds and still built this colossal of art in his spare time (33 years). I am ashamed to ever say that I have no time for the gym. This visit was so inspiring.
Conclusion: Be strong, be stubborn, your madness can be the next palais ideal.
