MARTIGNY, Switzerland (Reuters) - Christoph Blocher's vast collection of works by Switzerland's master painters is a fitting accompaniment to the 79-year-old billionaire's decades at the vanguard of right-wing Swiss politics.
A 127-piece sample from his private trove, on display at the Fondation Pierre Gianadda in Martigny from December until June, celebrates Switzerland's rural roots and iconic geography, with a dash of the heroic folk identity Blocher has long championed.
