Painted Wall of the Hotel 7Art

The Iconic Mural of Hotel 7Art in Cannes

On the façade of Hotel 7Art, discover a unique tribute to cinema: a mural that brings together the greatest moments in Cannes Film Festival history.

Each decade of the festival is represented by its official poster, alongside the Palme d'Or-winning films and their iconic actors:

1946 – La Symphonie Pastorale by Jean Delannoy, starring Michèle Morgan & Pierre Blanchard
1957 – Friendly Persuasion by William Wyler, starring Gary Cooper
1966 – A Man and a Woman by Claude Lelouch, starring Anouk Aimée & Jean-Louis Trintignant (ex-aequo with Signore e Signori by Pietro Germi)
1976 – Taxi Driver by Martin Scorsese, starring Robert De Niro
1987 – Under the Sun of Satan by Maurice Pialat, starring Gérard Depardieu
1996 – The Eel by Shōhei Imamura, starring Mitsuko Baisho & Kōji Yakusho (ex-aequo with Taste of Cherry by Abbas Kiarostami)

But that’s not all! The mural also pays homage to cinema legends, featuring:
Alfred Hitchcock with one of his famous birds
Vivien Leigh & Clark Gable in Gone with the Wind
Gérard Philipe, born in Cannes in 1922, in Fanfan la Tulipe
