The boxing gloves are placed on an armchair.
The punching bag hangs next to it, ready to take the punches.
In his office at Cannes town hall, David Lisnard has combined the useful with the pleasant.
Files accumulate on the desk as well as on his desk, in a mess that only the mayor can manage.
Visitors are also warned by a text by Albert Einstein, prominently displayed in front of him:
"If the sight of a cluttered desk evokes a cluttered mind, then what to think of that of an empty desk?"
On the wall, paintings by local artists stand alongside the official photo of the President of the Republic, photos of the mayor with stars, posters of the festival, but also photos of singer Nina Hagen and the leader of the Motörhead group, Lemmy. Kilmister.
In addition to running the marathon, David Lisnard is also an enthusiast and specialist in punk music.
And started boxing some time ago.
