Que représente l’affiche Collioure Château Royal ?

L’illustration montre le Château royal dominant la baie de Collioure. Ses remparts bordent la plage du Faubourg et le port catalan. Les tons ocre, la pierre claire et la lumière marine évoquent une promenade sur la Côte Vermeille.

Pourquoi le château de Collioure est-il appelé « Château royal » ?

Le château accueillit plusieurs souverains au fil des siècles. Entre 1276 et 1344, il servit notamment de résidence estivale à la cour des rois de Majorque. Collioure occupait alors une place stratégique entre le Roussillon, la Catalogne et la Méditerranée.

Vauban a-t-il construit le Château royal de Collioure ?

Non. Le site fortifié existait depuis le Moyen Âge. Il fut ensuite transformé en citadelle à partir du XVIe siècle. Après le rattachement du Roussillon à la France, Vauban renforça ses bastions et adapta ses défenses aux nouvelles techniques militaires.

Quelle différence existe-t-il entre le Château royal et le fort Saint-Elme ?

Le Château royal se dresse au centre de la baie, directement au bord de la mer. Le fort Saint-Elme occupe la colline située entre Collioure et Port-Vendres. Sa forme étoilée domine le village, tandis que le château protège historiquement le port naturel.

Quel cadre choisir pour ce poster de Collioure ?

Un cadre en bois clair rappelle les pierres chaudes et l’esprit méditerranéen. Un cadre blanc prolonge la lumière de la baie. Ensuite, un cadre noir souligne les remparts et donne une présence plus graphique à l’illustration. Ce poster Collioure convient à un salon, une entrée ou une maison de vacances.

Quels formats sont proposés pour cette affiche de Collioure ?

L’affiche Collioure Château Royal existe en 21 × 30, 30 × 42, 50 × 70, 70 × 100 et 100 × 140 cm. Marie Troff la dessine à la main, puis elle est imprimée en France sur papier couché mat 170 g/m². Le tirage est limité à 200 exemplaires signés © Foliove. Elle est vendue sans cadre.

Discover this Collioure Royal Castle poster, an illustration by Marie Troff for Foliove.

This vintage Collioure Royal Castle poster depicts a familiar landmark of the Côte Vermeille. The fortress has watched over the bay since the 13th century. It preserves the memory of the kings of Majorca, the sun-warmed stones of the Catalan port, and the passage of the sea breeze.

Once a summer residence and later a stronghold remodelled by Vauban, the Royal Castle of Collioure remains a powerful landmark in the landscape. Listed as a Historic Monument, it overlooks Faubourg Beach, the port, and the village’s colourful façades. In this way, this Collioure poster brings a fragment of Catalan heritage into the home.

Light plays an essential role here. It glides over the ramparts, illuminates the sea, and recalls the clarity that inspired the Fauvist painters. It captures the spirit of old travel posters, somewhere between a holiday memory, wall decoration, and an indoor postcard.

Illustrated by Marie Troff, this artwork was created in her studio in Saint-Genis-des-Fontaines, twenty minutes from Collioure. Every line maintains a connection with the place, its colours, landscape, and Mediterranean atmosphere.

The poster is printed locally by an Imprim’Vert-certified printer on 170 g/m² matte coated paper. It is available in several formats, so it can find its place in a living room, hallway, bedroom, or office. It is sold unframed and shipped in a recycled cardboard tube. Limited edition, signed ©Foliove.

Questions fréquentes sur l'affiche Collioure Château Royal

In Marie's studio, in Saint-Genis-des-Fontaines

How I design each poster, by hand, in the Pyrénées-Orientales

Foliove is my daily work. I create each illustration by hand, from my studio nestled in the Pyrénées-Orientales. Wacom, stylus, patience. No digital shortcuts, no images found anywhere other than in my souvenir photos, no effects applied with a click. Each line is consciously drawn, starting from a blank screen.

Printing is done nearby, at an Imprim'Vert certified printer in Elne. This is no accident: I can check the colors in person, adjust if necessary, and discuss directly with the team. They prioritize solvent-free inks and certified paper. It's a relationship, not just an order.

My subjects are born from my travels. A shade of the sky, a detail of a facade, a season frozen in an instant. I transpose them into a drawing once I return, often much later. It's my way of preserving these moments and offering them to those, like you, who look at them.
