Courtly Ladies, Mural in Saint-Esprit district, Bayonne, France
Courtly Ladies is a large-scale mural in the Saint-Esprit district that displays detailed portraits of noble women dressed in historical clothing on a building wall. The artwork spans an entire facade and combines realistic painting with bold contrasting colors and backgrounds.
The mural was created in October 2018 as part of the Points de Vue festival, which transforms the city into an open-air gallery. This festival catalyzed the production of multiple street artworks that now characterize the urban landscape.
The mural features noble women whose depictions connect medieval traditions with contemporary urban creativity. These figures serve as a bridge between historical elegance and modern street art practice.
The mural is located in the Saint-Esprit neighborhood and is easily accessible from street level. You can find it by consulting local art guides or online maps that document other murals throughout the city.
The artwork blends medieval fashion elements with modern painting techniques, creating a striking contrast between historical imagery and contemporary methods. This fusion demonstrates how street art can reimagine classical themes for today's viewers.
