Salon Vert or green living room, probably originally the medieval kitchen, at Fontfroide Abbey or l'Abbaye Sainte-Marie de Fontfroide, at Narbonne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Occitanie, France. In 1908 the abbey was bought by Gustave Fayet, an art collector and wine grower, who renovated many of the rooms and commissioned artworks. Founded by the Viscount of Narbonne in 1093, Fontfroide linked to the Cistercian order in 1145. Today the abbey estate produces AOC Corbieres wine. Picture by Manuel Cohen
