Welcome, travel and atmosphere · Images that give identity to the place

Landscapes, cities and night scenes allow hotels to build a memorable, coherent and welcoming atmosphere in both rooms and common areas.

Hotel painting must be immediately readable while retaining enough richness to accompany several glances. Vermeer's View of Delft offers a calm city, structured by water and light, capable of bringing elegance and depth to a lobby or bedroom. Edward Hopper's Nighthawks creates a nocturnal urban atmosphere, ideal for a contemporary establishment that assumes a cinematic identity. Friedrich's The Traveler Contemplating a Sea of Clouds combines movement, horizon and discovery, three ideas naturally linked to hospitality. Printing, rising sun by Friedrich combines movement, horizon and discovery, three ideas naturally linked to hospitality. Printing, rising sun by Monet finally brings atmospheric light and an adaptable palette, sufficiently iconic to mark space without weighing it down. The "Hotel Paintings" selection notably compares View of Delft - Johannes Vermeer and Nighthawks - Edward Hopper. His reading favors the story.

In a hotel, an effective work becomes a landmark: it welcomes, suggests a journey and gives the place a visual memory.
