The Bells of Bicêtre Bookish Wall Art by Georges Simenon

Celebrating The Bells of Bicêtre, this minimalist book poster honours Georges Simenon's haunting meditation on a man confronting his own mortality from a hospital bed. The art print evokes the protagonist René Maugras as he listens to the bells of the Bicêtre hospital, piecing together fragments of his life and relationships. A quietly contemplative addition to a home library, study, or reading nook, perfect for fans of Simenon's psychological depth, book club members, and readers drawn to introspective European fiction.

The Modern edition of The Bells of Bicêtre is bold, expressive bookish wall art — a contemporary take on classic literature in rich graphic colour. A statement piece for readers who want their favourite books to anchor a room.

✦ Three exclusive colour variations to choose from (Style X, Y, Z)
