The mural “Voyelles” is a tribute to Arthur Rimbaud and his poem “Voyelles”. It is part of a street art trail in Charleville-Mézières that illustrates Rimbaud's most important poems. This trail invites you to stroll through the streets that Rimbaud took and discover works of art that illustrate his poems.
The poem “Voyelles” is one of Rimbaud's best-known works and is exhibited in the Arthur Rimbaud Museum. It is one of the many poems that Rimbaud wrote during his short but influential career as a poet.

“Voyelles” is a sonnet written by Arthur Rimbaud in 1871, but first published in 1883. The theme of the poem is the different characters of the vowels, which it associates with those of colors. It is one of the most studied poems in the French language and has provoked very diverse interpretations.
The poem begins with the lines “A noir, E blanc, I rouge, U vert, O bleu : voyelles, Je dirai quelque jour vos naissances latentes” ). The poem goes on to describe different images and emotions associated with each vowel.
This poem is emblematic of Rimbaud's poetry and is often seen as a precursor of surrealism. It is an expression of Rimbaud's unique poetic vision and his ability to use language in new and surprising ways.
