French artist Patrick Commecy and his team of muralists transform dull and boring facades around France into vibrant scenes full of life. His hyperrealistic painted-on windows, balconies and tiles closely resemble their real-life counterparts. Hanging in the balconies and outdoor space, Commecy would often incorporate figures of famous and influential persons from the history of the town the mural is in.
The painted trompe l'oeil architecture on the Montpellier building (inset pictures) sports six famous figures and residents of Montpellier including Antoine Jérôme Balard, a chemist and discoverer of bromine.
