Le château de Cérons, ou château de CALVIMONT, est l'une des premières chartreuses du bordelais, reprenant des éléments de style Louis XIV avec ses deux pavillons et son acrotère important.
Le château de Cérons est situé sur la commune de Cérons, à 35 km au sud de Bordeaux. Faisant face à l'église XIIe siècle, il fut bâti à l'emplacement de l'ancien village de Cérons. Sa position en bord de Garonne était importante lorsque les exportations de vin de Bordeaux se faisaient par le fleuve.
Historique
Le château de Cérons, chartreuse de style classique, a été construit entre la fin du XVIIe et le début du XVIIIe siècle, par une famille de parlementaires bordelais, les Denys. Il fut la propriété de la famille de CALVIMONT aux XVIIIe et XIXe siècles. L'intérieur du château porte de nombreuses marques de la Révolution française qui poussa à l'exil les CALVIMONT. Vendu aux enchères à plusieurs reprises, le château de Cérons eut de nombreux propriétaires à la fin du XIXe siècle puis fut acquis par la famille VACHE. Roger Expert, architecte de renom de la première partie du XXe siècle, y passa la fin de sa vie et restaura la salle centrale du château. Pendant la Première Guerre mondiale, la partie nord sert d’hôpital militaire, principalement pour les victimes des gaz utilisés sur le front. En 1940, puis pendant la Guerre d'Algérie, le château accueillit des réfugiés.
Le domaine est la propriété de la famille PERROMAT qui l'a acquis en 1958. C'est un château viticole produisant un vin liquoreux d'AOC Cérons ainsi que des vins rouges et blancs secs en appellation Graves.
L'édifice a été inscrit au titre des monuments historiques par arrêté du 19 août 2008 pour ses décors intérieurs, à savoir des sculptures, des menuiseries et des décors stuqués.
Jean-Yves Saint Lezer, a contemporary French artist, embarked on his artistic journey from a tender age, initially expressing his creativity through pencil drawings. The spark ignited during his school days, where he vividly recalls sketching a sailboat (a corvette) that adorned the cover of his notebooks. His artistic endeavors expanded as he repeatedly drew and diversified into landscapes, still lifes, and various subjects.
Life took its course, and Jean-Yves Saint Lezer pursued a career until retirement, putting his artistic passion on hold. With the luxury of time in retirement, he rekindled his love for painting, primarily focusing on landscapes and still lifes. His creations are characterized by a unique and pure artistic vision, reflecting his personal interpretations.
In his artistic practice, Jean-Yves draws inspiration from renowned painters like Bill Alexander and Bob Ross, both known for their mastery of the wet-on-wet technique. While adhering to this technique, Jean-Yves goes beyond, combining multiple artistic approaches to diversify his style. His paintings stand as a testament to the harmonious fusion of influences, resulting in a body of work that is uniquely his own.
As Jean-Yves Saint Lezer continues to explore and experiment with various techniques, his art resonates with a genuine passion for creation. Retired but invigorated by the opportunity to pursue his artistic calling, he brings a fresh perspective to the canvas, creating pieces that reflect not only his skill but also the joy derived from the process of artistic expression.
