Hilltop old town
The historic centre sits on raised ground, with a tight knot of narrow streets around the castle and the square where Picasso's bronze Man with a Sheep stands.

Hill streets fold down from a pottery town to the bay of Golfe-Juan, where the grid flattens out against a curved Mediterranean shore.

The map
Vallauris sits in the hills just west of Antibes, and from above it reads as two places joined by a valley road. The old town gathers on high ground inland, its streets twisting along the slopes, while Golfe-Juan spreads along the coast below, with a harbour and a straight beachfront facing the bay.
The town is known for ceramics. Potters have worked its clay for centuries, and after the Second World War Pablo Picasso lived and worked here, making pottery and leaving behind the War and Peace murals in the castle chapel. Golfe-Juan has a different claim to fame: Napoleon came ashore there in 1815 after leaving Elba.
A Vallauris map poster shows this split clearly. Dense, winding lanes sit at the top of the sheet, looser suburban loops and villa roads fill the hillsides, and the coast runs along the bottom edge with the port jutting out into open water. Printed in black and white, the contrast between the steep hills and the flat shoreline is easy to see.
The historic centre sits on raised ground, with a tight knot of narrow streets around the castle and the square where Picasso's bronze Man with a Sheep stands.
On the coast the street pattern straightens out. A long beachfront road follows the bay, and the harbour's breakwaters give a clean geometric edge against the sea.
Between town and coast, roads switch back across wooded slopes. On paper these curving lines look like contour drawings and fill the middle of the map.

Why Vallauris
Some people hang Vallauris because they bought a jug here on a summer afternoon, and others because of Picasso's years in the studio. Either way, the map keeps the town's hills and its stretch of coast together in one simple frame.
You can add a title, a subtitle such as a year or a family name, and a coordinates line. Then choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. The Sand style works well with the warm Riviera light.
