Eduardo Kobra known as KOBRA is a Brazilian street art artist from São Paulo (Brazil). It is known for its large, colorful frescoes. Kobra immersed himself in “street art” culture at a very young age. In order to develop his style which mixes original mural painting and realism, he carried out the “walls of memory” project.
The objective is to transform the urban landscape through art and to recall the memory of the cities where he is invited to express his talent through paintings that combine nostalgia and modernity.
The artist has traveled around the world to spread his style (London, Athens, Lyon, Los Angeles, New York, Moscow, Lexington, Los Angeles and also Miami).

During his visit to Boulogne sur Mer he not only painted this wall, but also a second one facing it.
The artist wanted to pay tribute to the impressionist Claude Monet (born November 14, 1840 in Paris and died December 5, 1926 in Giverny), who looks at his work, "the woman with the parasol turned to the left", a painting now kept at the Musée d'Orsay, in Paris. It took him a week to paint these two facades.
We easily recognize a fresco by Eduardo Kobra, he is used to making colorful checkerboards. What is also remarkable in this creation is the realism of the brushes, we really have the impression of seeing real ones (photos Nov 2017).
