Israel-©-MEA-20170419-(N36)–Art-in-Jerusalem-Murals on Buildings-1
This is one of the many murals which appear on the side of buildings in Jerusalem. Although it was difficult to get up close and ‘square-on’, the mural still has many of its images which depict everyday life in modern Jerusalem, including the ‘Light Rail’ which transports passengers around the city and central to this modern metropolis.
Notice the kids skate boarding, men playing cards and even the camel (centre bottom) that’s looking around at the ‘goings on’. Also, see if you can spot the ongoing repairs to the upper balcony door and window; as well as the man climbing up the side of a large hanging red curtain, which extends across the scaffolding at the top. Then zoom in and enjoy all the activities spread across this societal panorama.
Judge for yourself, whether this mural suits the building on which it is painted. How does it fit in with the units and balconies, the beautiful flowers in full bloom and the blue-stripped awnings covering them? If you lived here, would you have chosen such a theme or some other!
Log-on next week for more Art in Jerusalem. Shalom.
