Villa Santo Sospir of Francine Weisweiller. "Head of Apollo" and on both sides fishermen from Villefranche by Jean Cocteau. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1985.
The living room of Francine Weisweiller's Villa Santo Sospir in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, photographed in 1985. A large mural by Jean Cocteau, painted directly onto the wall, surrounds the fireplace. The composition features a stylized "Head of Apollo" above the mantel, flanked by two figures representing fishermen from Villefranche. Rendered in a sketch-like style with blue and yellow accents, the artwork integrates with built-in bookshelves. In the foreground, plush armchairs with a tropical leaf pattern and a vase of anthurium flowers furnish the space.
