Pétanque game at the Vallon des Auffes, Marseille poster

Marseille poster, a pétanque game at the Vallon des Auffes

On the quay of the little harbor of the Vallon des Auffes, a game of pétanque is in full swing. A player in a cap throws his ball as his friends look on, while the steel balls and the jack wait on the gravel in the foreground. Behind, colorful pointus fishing boats are moored, and the stone arches of the Corniche bridge close off the scene. This Marseille pétanque poster, beneath the title “MARSEILLE”, brings together bright light, blue water and vivid boats.

A game of boules for the terrace or living room

Convivial and colorful, it hangs well in a living room, a kitchen, a sunroom or a bar corner. Its blues and boat colors go well with wood, wicker, terracotta floor tiles and Provençal ceramics. Other posters of Marseille or the seaside can keep it company. Give it to a pétanque player, someone from Marseille, a group of friends who meet around a court every summer or a grandfather who is the neighborhood champion.
