Cimetière Saint-Pierre, Marseille, Bouches-du-Rhône (13) #3: Antonin Artaud

'FAMILLE ANTONIN ARTAUD'
This, as might be expected on the name on it, is where Antonin Artaud (1896–1948) lies. And not, as has been suggested by Odette Boulaméry in her Le cimetière de Saint-Pierre de Marseille (1999), in the grave of the tomb of the Baigneris-Catalan family shown below.

Antonin Artaud in Marseille, Bouches-du-Rhône (13)


The bust of Marseille-born Antonin Artaud (1896–1948) at the entrance to the parc zoologique. The day before, I noticed someone cleaning graffiti from a lamp post opposite the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de la Major, although of course that is a much more touristic area of Marseille: it's vital to spend money on the places where the money's coming in.
