Sue Roe, author of The Private Lives of the Impressionists, wrote of Dr. Gachet's garden:"Dr. Gachet's house was set in the hillside above the main street [of the village], with a terraced garden full of flowers and looking down into the valley of the Oise.  The house and garden were always full of stray cats, chickens and a ragged, featherless rooster... In the garden, he [Dr. Gachet] worked at a table painted bright orange (later immortalized by Van Gogh, in his Portrait of Dr Gachet)."
"Maison du Dr. Gachet," the house and gardens of Dr. Paul Gachet, was opened to the public in 2004.
