Les Pieds Nickelés, Street mural in downtown Angoulême, France
The Les Pieds Nickelés mural features two trompe l'oeil windows displaying the characters Ribouldingue, Filochard, and Croquignol on a wall of Jean Fougerat Street.
Created in 1999 by the Cité Création association, this mural pays tribute to the characters invented by Forton in 1908 for French comic strips.
This artwork depicts three central figures from French comics, reinforcing the status of Angoulême as the national capital of comic art.
The mural stands on Jean Fougerat Street and remains open year-round for visitors who want to photograph this artistic creation.
The mural details show the three main characters in their distinctive style, continuing the graphic legacy developed by Pellos between 1948 and 1981.
