A large Trompe l’Oeil for an artistic stair

Beausoleil on the French Riviera is a sunny town close to the sea. Given its proximity to the most famous principality of Monaco, it is scattered with elegant and luxurious homes. It was the base for the master artists of Mariani Affreschi to create some beautiful paintings and decorations in a private residence.
Three custom paintings were completed, each personalised according to the taste and needs of the owner.
The first painting designed by our artists is a large trompe l’oeil that covers the entire back wall of two twin staircases. The large subject matter was divided into two parts and was customised according to the steps to ensure the realistic illusion typical of the trompe l’oeil technique.

With appropriate studies and plans, the architectural element of the staircase was incorporated into the wall scenery of the trompe l’oeil (French word meaning “deceives the eye”) reproducing a three-dimensional landscape through the clever use of the chiaroscuro technique.
From a technical point of view, the trompe l’oeil requires excellent knowledge of drawing techniques, rules of perspective, and the use of light and shadow effects, as well as perfect mastery of colour and shading, all qualities possessed by our experienced painters.
The decoration of the stairs was completed with the painting of the railings. A bronze effect accompanies the predominantly warm colours of the wall in the metal details of the bannister, to finish at the top of the stairs in a sculpture depicting bunches of grapes.

A final decorative touch is given by the third intervention carried out by the Mariani Affreschi painters, which involved decorating the wooden panels of the entrance boiserie. Delicate honey-coloured volutes were painted on the panels on top of an ethereal ivory colour.
These three painting works is the perfect example of how Mariani Affreschi’s interior design expertise is able to provide a complete service tailored to the style of the house, integrating the unique artistic skills of its Italian experts.
