Another grand mural has appeared on the walls of Cannes: at Rue Louis Blanc 28, a tribute to Guy de Maupassant (1850-1893), one of the greatest French writers and to his works adapted for cinema, has been inaugurated.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The mural is located right in front of the “Chalet de l\u2019Is\u00e8re,” which was one of his last residences.<\/p>\n

After the portraits of Jean-Paul Belmondo and the one dedicated to the film “A Man and a Woman,” Guy de Maupassant’s mural is the twenty-first painted mural in the city. These monumental works celebrate iconic scenes or famous actors in all neighborhoods of the city.<\/p>\n
