Giant mural


I'm not sure if this mural is a representation of a real person, but I found it very striking. I also like the way the Telespargel is sticking out in the background. Hope you had a wonderful weekend. For more murals, head to Mural Monday.

ETA: The name of this mural is The Wrinkles of the City. It was painted by the artist known as JR. More information can be found here.

  3. A wonderful composition...the eye cannot help but travel along the line of the shot. The mural, though, is kinda weird; like he's giving you the evil eye. I'd be interested in knowing what it was all about.

  4. That is very weird. Do you know the artist? There are some like that in France. Kinda spooky. MB

  7. Well this mural is quite famous. The artist is JR a young French photographer and street artist born in Paris in 1983. I always laugh about the persons who love the Telespargel they .must be nostalgic of DDR symbols.
