Old-fashioned Sunday #3
The previous two murals are in better shape than this one; as you can see, the architectural defect is not camouflaged as well as yesterday's. Even though the murals have been neglected, the scenes of days-gone-by are still clearly visible on all three that I have posted. Have a good week-end, everyone. I'll see you on Monday!

You know, this mural convinces me that the artist was not trying to camouflage the filled-in window/door. I think he/she just ignored it.
ReplyDeleteDo you know how old these murals are? They are beautiful and in great shape.
What a great family scene, right down to that big ol' black dog.
ReplyDeleteAll three murals are really spectacular. I'm so glad you stopped to capture history.
ReplyDeletevraiment une superbe série, la ville devrait faire des cartes postales avec ces peintures murales.
ReplyDeleteJe te souhaite un bon weekend
Really a wonderful serie, the city should make postcards with these murals.
I wish you a good weekend
These are quite nice Kate. I would like to see something like that here on the sides of old buildings downtown. I would say the person is a gifted artist who is doing them.
ReplyDeleteNice shot too.
Very beautiful!
ReplyDeletebeautiful murals, all the serie looks good :)
ReplyDeletehave a nice weekend
I saw Seurat even in the thumbnail. The mural is a very clever variation on his famous Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, which is in the Chicago Art Institute. Is there an island in the Mississippi these people could be on?
ReplyDeleteYet another lovely mural. Love the setting, the picnic, the dog.
ReplyDeleteVery nice murals you've been posting, Kate!
ReplyDeleteThese are really great, I wish we had somethin like that in my town.
ReplyDeleteStrangetastes nailed it, I think :)
I must be old fashioned - I like them!!
ReplyDeleteThese are so interesting!
ReplyDeleteI do like the murals. I posted a couple that are on our downtown buildings, znd as I mentioned, we're amazed that they aren't tagged. Like, Fenix, I'd like to know how long they've been there.
ReplyDeleteActually I found the "architectural defect" to add interest to the mural. I like to imagine a mural within a mural both blinding together.
ReplyDeleteLove your mural series. They are all beautiful and reminiscent of an artist's work whose name I don't recall. The second mural with the bicycle is the most interesting and beautiful of the three.
ReplyDeleteThese murals are very nice indeed. May you please take a photo to the building? I think should be nice to see murals into building
ReplyDeleteThese three murals are lovely Kate. I like the scenes they depict.
