- Tête de Faune Chevelu
A hairy faun head in Picasso's museum in Antibes. This is IMHO one of the best paintings there. - Nature morte a la sole et aux trois oursins

There is something lovable about these guys. - Old Antibes
Well... But I am now getting more curious about that man pouring paint over his head - I spotted the same guy in Théoule ;-) - Tiger graffiti

- Maltese cross in Biot
The history of Biot is closely related to the Templars. If I understood correctly, the whole town was given to the Templars in 1209. - Local art in Antibes
Some tiles on an old building in Antibes. Rue du Haut Castelet. - Le Nomade

This is a wonderful statue of the wind by Popoy (2013). - Église Sainte-Marie-Madeleine in Biot

I love the Nomade. The first time I saw him, I found the statue too static for a nomade. But now I can understand him. And I love him. - Le Nomade
So many so different pictures one can take with the Nomade.
