Le Château RAUZAN-SEGLA, est un domaine viticole situé à Margaux en Gironde.
HISTOIRE DU DOMAINE.
Le nom d'origine du domaine vient de Pierre DESMEZURE de RAUZAN, qui acquiert en 1661 la maison noble de GASSIES. Au milieu du XVIIIe siècle, le domaine se sépare en deux pour devenir RAUZAN-GASSIES et RAUZAN-SEGLA. Le nom SEGLA est apporté par Catherine, fille de Marie-Anne BRIET et de Philippe SIMON de RAUZAN, elle épousa le baron Pierre Louis de SEGLA en 1785. Selon une illustration de l'ouvrage de Gustave de GALARD, le château ressemble encore à une chartreuse en 1835.
En 1903, Frédéric CRUSE prend la direction du domaine, c'est en grande partie à lui qu'on doit le château actuel. Il confie à l'architecte Louis GARROS la réalisation de nouveaux bâtiments, entre 1904 et 1905 le château est remis en état, de 1905 à 1906 les bâtiments d'exploitation sont rénovés. Entre 1919 et 1920, une tour observatoire est ajoutée à un hangar par l'architecte Alexandre GARROS (fils de Louis GARROS).

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.
