A mural approach shaped by this place
Saint-Tropez works on a short, intense season: hotels, private beaches, village boutiques and villas across the peninsula. Giulia paints all year round, and the date is set with the venue. Salt, wind and harsh sun call for a resistant finish on anything outdoors. It all starts with a photo of the wall and its measurements: Giulia draws the sketch on top, then comes to paint on site.
What can be painted in Saint-Tropez comes down to a few images: the ochre and pink facades of the port, the citadel, the yellow bell tower, the sails at anchor, Signac and La Hune as an echo. The price follows the technique: 400 € per sqm for a line silhouette, 600 € for a fully painted subject.
What Giulia brings to Saint-Tropez. 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. Corriere della Sera, Domus and Sky Arte have covered her work, and her mural of more than twenty metres dedicated to Gaber and Jannacci stands in Milan. 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 Saint-Tropez
In 1892 Paul Signac sailed into the port of Saint-Tropez aboard his yacht, the Olympia, bought a house that he turned into a studio, La Hune, and invited the painters of his day. The chapel of Notre-Dame de l’Annonciade, built in 1568 for the White Penitents and abandoned at the Revolution, was placed in 1950 at the disposal of Georges Grammont, who converted it at his own expense to show his collection: the museum opened on 7 August 1955.
Saint-Tropez is therefore a village that made painting its history, long before cinema. Giulia Dal Bon paints there with a brush, in the villas, flats, hotels and restaurants of the gulf, using odourless acrylic colours indoors, quartz paint and anti-salt varnish outdoors. Prestige rate from 400 € per sqm, free quote within 48 hours.
Giulia also paints live in Saint-Tropez. For a wedding, a private evening or a brand event, she sets up her easel and the painting takes shape in front of your guests, signed and taken home the same 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 Saint-Tropez?
Giulia Dal Bon paints by the square metre: 400 € for a line drawing or a simple motif, 600 € for a fully painted subject, 800 € 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 does it work to have a wall painted in Saint-Tropez?
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 400 € per sqm in Saint-Tropez, and sets the date with you. She then comes and paints the mural at your place in Saint-Tropez, by brush, and the place stays open while she works.
What does a mural quote in Saint-Tropez cover?
With Giulia Dal Bon, the price per square metre 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 Saint-Tropez?
In Saint-Tropez, sun-drenched, strongly coloured designs that hold up against the peninsula’s harsh light. 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 Saint-Tropez be painted on a wall?
Yes. A painted view lives first of all on its lines. The ochre and pink facades of the harbour, the citadel above the village, the yellow bell tower and the sails at anchor. Giulia Dal Bon works with a brush, on the wall itself. A line-drawn view is 400 € per sqm, the same view fully painted from 600 €. Free quote within 48 hours.
What subject works well for a mural in Saint-Tropez?
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 Saint-Tropez?
Yes, with surface preparation and paints made for outdoor use. Salt, wind and harsh sun. Giulia paints outdoors all year round, on a dry wall and in mild weather.
Do I need permission to paint a facade in Saint-Tropez?
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?
An acrylic mural by Giulia Dal Bon lasts 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.

Murals for boutiquesIdeas for spaces
Depending on the space in Saint-Tropez, 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 villa veranda wall of 10 sqm fully painted, around 6 000 €.
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 beach bar of 15 sqm fully painted, around 9 000 €.
Facades and exterior walls
Sea air attacks facades. A salt-blocking primer and a UV-resistant finish protect the colours from sun and salt. 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 400 € per sqm, plus scaffolding if needed.

Where Giulia works in Saint-Tropez
In Saint-Tropez, for a private client, 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. She also paints the kitchen, the bathroom, the entrance, the hallway and the stairwell. A ceiling is painted the same way, from the scaffold. Outdoors, she uses quartz paint on the exterior facade and the garden wall, with a protective varnish to finish. A mobile panel is painted separately, and moves with you.
In a restaurant, a pizzeria, a café or a bar in Saint-Tropez, she paints the dining-room wall, and service carries on while she works. 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 walls of the cabins and of the main room. In a medical practice, a waiting room and a nursery, she paints the reception wall and the corridor. For an office and a showroom, she paints reception, the corridor and the meeting room. A vaulted cellar is painted too, from the wall to the vault.
In La Ponche, Place des Lices and the Citadelle, you send her a photo of the wall and she draws the sketch straight onto it, then you shape the idea together.
Possible subjects in Saint-Tropez: the ochre and pink facades of the port, the citadel, the yellow bell tower, the sails at anchor, Signac and La Hune as an echo. And always the trompe-l’oeil window, the botanical motif and the painted sky on a ceiling.
Very different words lead to the same search: mural, wall mural, artistic painting on a wall, wall decoration, mural decoration, decorative painting. Trompe-l’oeil is one form of it, a hand-painted wall and a drawing on a wall are others, and some look for a painting made directly on the wall. Behind those words, one craft in Saint-Tropez: mural artist, muralist, wall artist, decorative painter.
Saint-Tropez works on a short intense season: hotels, private beaches, village boutiques and villas across the peninsula.
Giulia also travels to Port-Grimaud, Ramatuelle, Sainte-Maxime, Gassin, Fréjus, Cavalaire-sur-Mer, Saint-Raphaël and Le Lavandou.
