A mural approach shaped by this place
Beaulieu is made of Belle Époque villas and bourgeois buildings. The entrance halls and stairwells are tall and often left bare, and paint changes the impression of a whole building at a fraction of what a renovation costs. The wind-sheltered microclimate makes exterior work easier than elsewhere on the coast. It all starts with a photo of the wall and its measurements: Giulia draws the sketch on top, then comes to paint on site.
On a wall in Beaulieu-sur-Mer, Giulia paints what the city shows: the Villa Kérylos and its Greek-style wall paintings, the harbour and its masts, the palm trees along the promenade, the Belle Époque facades, the bay seen from the cape. Drawn in line they are 150 € per sqm; painted in colour and volume, 250 €.
What Giulia brings to Beaulieu-sur-Mer. Giulia is a painter, trained at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan. She exhibits her paintings in art galleries and also paints on walls. She paints with a brush, in odourless acrylic indoors and quartz paint outdoors, and Corriere della Sera, Domus and Sky Arte have covered her work. The wall is her favourite canvas because it truly becomes part of a place, a unique work made to tell your story.

Giulia also paints live at weddings: she sets up her easel during the cocktail hour and the painting stays with the couple. From 950 €, see live wedding painting on the French Riviera.
What Giulia brings to Beaulieu-sur-Mer
Villa Kérylos was built between 1902 and 1908 on a rocky headland at Beaulieu, by the architect Emmanuel Pontremoli for Théodore Reinach, a Hellenist and banker’s son, who spent around nine million francs on it. Every detail was conceived as a total work of art: mosaics inspired by Delos, marble columns, painted ceilings, furniture designed for the house. The wall paintings are by Adrien Karbowsky and Gustave-Louis Jaulmes, the stuccowork by Paul Gasq. The villa has belonged to the Institut de France since 1928.
Beaulieu-sur-Mer therefore keeps a house where wall painting was designed together with the architecture, room by room. That is how Giulia Dal Bon approaches a mural: a subject conceived for that wall and that light. She paints with a brush in the villas, flats and hotels of the bay, using odourless acrylic colours indoors, quartz paint and anti-salt varnish outdoors. From 150 € per sqm, free quote within 48 hours.
Live painting is available in Beaulieu-sur-Mer too. Giulia arrives with canvas and paints, works through a seaside wedding, a summer evening or a birthday, and the painting is yours at the end of the evening. From 950 € for a wedding, from 400 € for a performance. See live painting →
Your questions, before commissioning
A photo of the wall, its approximate dimensions and the idea you have in mind are enough to receive a quote.
How much does a mural cost in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?
Giulia Dal Bon paints by the square metre: 150 € for a line drawing or a simple motif, 250 € for a fully painted subject, 350 € for trompe-l’oeil or a ceiling. A small mural in a bedroom costs less than a facade that needs preparation and scaffolding. The quote is free: see all prices.
How do I get a mural painted in my home in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?
Write to Giulia Dal Bon on WhatsApp or by email, even if the idea is still vague: she replies within 48 hours. Send her a photo of the wall to be painted, she draws a sketch straight onto your photo, you tell her what you think, and the first two sketches are free. Once the sketch is approved, she sends you the quote, from 150 € per sqm in Beaulieu-sur-Mer, and sets the date with you. She then comes and paints the mural at your place in Beaulieu-sur-Mer, by brush, and the place stays open while she works.
What does the price of a mural in Beaulieu-sur-Mer include?
The square-metre price Giulia Dal Bon quotes includes the paint and materials, the first two sketches, corrections during the work and the protective varnish as a finish. Added to the quote, when needed, are the scaffolding for a facade and travel costs, agreed together. The quote is free and arrives within 48 hours; a deposit of about 100 € for materials confirms the date, and the balance is settled at the end.
What kind of mural works well in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?
In Beaulieu-sur-Mer, hall and stairwell designs, because the bourgeois buildings have large surfaces left bare. Everything is painted with a brush, in odourless acrylic.
Does it damage the wall?
Giulia paints on the existing plaster after a simple clean. If the wall is cracked or damp, she says so before the quote and explains what needs fixing. An acrylic mural can be painted over later like any wall paint.
Can I see the design before saying yes?
Yes, always. Giulia sends a digital sketch laid over the photo of your wall, with a detailed quote. The first two sketches are free, and she adjusts them with you.
Can a view of Beaulieu-sur-Mer be painted on a wall?
Yes. What draws the city comes down to a few elements. The Belle Époque villas and their balconies, the Villa Kérylos set on the rocks, the Baie des Fourmis and the seafront palms. Giulia Dal Bon composes the view for the wall in front of her. As a line drawing, 150 € per sqm; painted in colour, 250 € per sqm. Free quote within 48 hours.
What subject works well for a mural in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?
The most requested subjects: floral and botanical work for bedrooms and living rooms, landscapes for living spaces and terraces, trompe l’oeil for facades and ceilings. Everything is drawn to measure: Giulia offers two free sketches from your idea, and you refine it together until the subject is yours.
What is the difference between a hand-painted mural and spray-painted graffiti?
They are two different crafts. A graffiti artist works with spray cans, with a fast gesture and a graphic finish. A brush-painted mural is built layer by layer, which allows gradients, fine detail and trompe l’oeil: it is a painting made directly on the wall. Indoors, Giulia uses odourless acrylic. And while she paints, people take the time to watch: a brush at work is a show in itself. The choice depends on the finish you are after.
What do you call an artist who paints on walls?
A mural artist, a muralist, a wall artist or a decorative painter, and the art itself is called mural painting or wall art. Some come from graffiti and work with spray cans; Giulia Dal Bon comes from painting: trained at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan, she exhibits her paintings in art galleries and paints commissioned murals with a brush. To have one painted, send her a photo of your wall: free quote within 48 hours.
Does a mural hold up outdoors in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?
Yes, with surface preparation and paints made for outdoor use. The sheltered microclimate makes exterior work easier than elsewhere on the coast, though sea humidity still calls for a well-prepared surface.
Do I need permission to paint a facade in Beaulieu-sur-Mer?
An interior wall can be painted freely. For a facade visible from the street, you usually need the owner’s or the building association’s approval, and a notice to the town hall if the building is in a protected area. Giulia explains the process before starting.
How long does it take to paint a mural?
It depends on the surface, the level of detail and how easy the wall is to reach. Giulia gives the timing with the quote, within 48 hours, and gives plenty of notice if the schedule moves. The place keeps running while she works: the acrylic is odourless.
How long does a mural last?
The murals Giulia Dal Bon paints last a lifetime indoors: the paint becomes part of the plaster and lives as long as the wall. Outdoors, quartz paint is made for facades, and an anti-salt or anti-pollution varnish extends it further. And if one day you want a change, it can be painted over like any wall paint.

Children’s bedroom muralsIdeas for spaces
Depending on the space in Beaulieu-sur-Mer, the mural sits on a single panel of wall or covers the whole room: a simple or floral motif for a bedroom, a figurative scene for a living room, painted decor that follows the mouldings, or all four walls in one piece. Giulia draws from the wall she has seen.
Houses and villas
Bedrooms, living rooms, stairwells, entrances, hallways and ceilings. Example: a stairwell of 14 sqm fully painted, around 3 500 €.
Hotels, restaurants and shops
Restaurant rooms, hotel bedroom walls, shop windows, shutters, lobbies and offices. A hand-painted mural belongs to this place alone, and it is what people remember about it. Example: a building lobby of 12 sqm fully painted, around 3 000 €.
Facades and exterior walls
Wind is blocked here, but sea humidity remains. A salt-blocking primer and a UV-resistant finish are enough. For a facade visible from the street, the owner’s or the building association’s approval is usually enough, plus a notice to the town hall in a protected zone. From 150 € per sqm, plus scaffolding if needed.

Where Giulia works in Beaulieu-sur-Mer
In Beaulieu-sur-Mer, in a house, a villa, a second home or a flat, Giulia paints on an interior wall : the living room, the children’s bedroom and the bedroom. The same work applies to the kitchen, the bathroom, the entrance, the hallway and the stairwell. A ceiling is painted the same way, from the scaffold. Outside, on the exterior facade and the garden wall, she works in quartz paint. A mobile panel is painted separately, and moves with you.
In a restaurant, a pizzeria, a café or a bar in Beaulieu-sur-Mer, the room stays open while she paints: the acrylic is odourless. For a boutique and a shop, she paints the shop window and the shutter, a front you recognise from down the street. For a hotel and a B&B, she paints the entrance hall and the rooms, one by one. In a hair salon, a spa and a gym, she paints the wall you look at while you wait. For a medical practice, a waiting room and a nursery, she paints the entrance and the waiting area. In an office and a showroom, she paints the wall the teams walk past every day. A vaulted cellar takes the same paint, right up to the ceiling.
Possible subjects in Beaulieu-sur-Mer: the Villa Kérylos and its Greek-style wall paintings, the harbour and its masts, the palm trees along the promenade, the Belle Époque facades, the bay seen from the cape. And always the trompe-l’oeil window, the botanical motif and the painted sky on a ceiling.
People ask for different things and mean the same one: a mural, a wall mural, an artistic painting on a wall. Others say wall decoration, decorative painting, mural decoration. Others again a trompe-l’oeil, a hand-painted wall, a drawing on a wall, or a painting made directly on the wall. It is one craft, that of a mural artist, a muralist, a decorative painter, and Giulia does it with a brush in Beaulieu-sur-Mer.
Beaulieu is made of Belle Époque villas and bourgeois buildings with high ceilings, entrance halls and stairwells that take paint well.
Giulia also travels to La Turbie, Peille, Sainte-Agnès, Gorbio and Sospel.
