Biarritz - France - Avenue Beaurivage This trompe l'oeil was designed and built in 1992 by the renowned company Lyon Cité de la Création.
On the left, a big house, a Pascal Ondarts, rugby player in his time window Biarritz Olympique (BO).
On a wall perpendicular, there are a window to two persons, one looking out to sea with binoculars.
Then a scene with a pediment and ball players to chistera.
