More from the Underpass


While taking photos of the last mural I also took the opportunity to  take some detailed ones of the Underpass not far away so over the next few weeks I will show them.

 This is the detail on a couple of the panels. They are painted on White tiles though there is a little bit of tagging going on along the underpass most of it seems free of crap. The Painting seem to be of West Indian background and may have a story to it that I would need to find out about

Another nice mural. Too bad someone had to spray the red line through it.

Now this is indeed an intriguing work...if I am not mistaken, the leaves on the right of the horses's head are tobacco and the other would appear to be grape vine. So I agree - WI influence here. Looking forward to more of these! YAM xx

Interesting. Too bad about the tagging and the other junk.

Billy Blue Eyes said...

Yes you could be right though I thought at first it could be a reference to the breweries that were in town but had second thoughts after the lack of barrels and the fact a mule was pulling the cart.

Yes the little scrotes get everywhere.

It looks beautiful. People who tag works of art like this are just plain destructive.

Billy Blue Eyes said...

Billy Blue Eyes said...

Lovely artwork there. Really too bad about the jerks who have no concept of beauty.

Billy Blue Eyes said...

Your so right

Birgitta said...

Interesting artwork! Happy New Year, Bill :)

Billy Blue Eyes said...

It is, not stunning but worth looking at

VioletSky said...

It looks like it might be a historical rortrait of the arrival of these people from whichever island they came from?

RedPat said...

You are right - there must be a story behind this one!

Billy Blue Eyes said...

Thats what I think it could be

Billy Blue Eyes said...

I will try and find out before the last one

Dana said...

The faces seem very well done. I'd love to know more!

Oh, I like this image. Even more than the ships. Nothing like finding the tropics in an underground passageway. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
