Mysterious Mural


Ingo got his car to the garage on Saturday and forgot his cam - luckily!!
So yesterday we went mural hunting, 5 km on foot - this is just the beginning - I know it is no Ente, but VOX and U2 gave no hint, either. (The style is not Ente´s). 
U2 and Depeche Mode have been in Braunschweig but I would have to pay to read the article, so please just enjoy the mural.....

Because.... this is for Sami´s COLOURFULWORLD Monday Murals.
 
Henry 🦁
 


 
Isn´t he so well done???
And another short history-lesson here, if you like.

They are nice, but I prefer murals with more colour. I like them cheerful.

The next will be colorful :-)

Bertiebo said...

That's right: mysterious

Iris Flavia said...

Yes, but Henry is great, huh?

Sami said...

Must be "Joshua tree" from the U2 album. I like that Henry was included.
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Iris.

...Henry pops up everywhere!

Iris Flavia said...

Sami, ups, I don´t know that song! Thank you! Yes, to Henry!

Tom, we live in the City of Henry the Lion 😁

Henry gets around, Iris.

Henry! There he is! Love that you have so many murals. I think they are just becoming a thing here. My favorite mural painter, Jessie Corlis, died unexpectedly last year, such a loss. He did beautiful work in our state.

By the way, Alderson, WV, once had its own lion! Here's a link to the story, if you would like to read it. https://www.wgpfoundation.org/historic-markers/alderson-lion/

It's great to see murals anywhere. You have a keen eye.

Iris Flavia said...

RedPat, well, he´s ours, as in Braunschweig´s :-)

Sue, why not join Sami then and share the murals? Sad he died...
Thank you for the Lion-story!!!
LOL, trying to outrun a lion is a stupid idea anyways, but I´d be in shock, too!
Here they held one in a house around that time, too - what a sad life!

CJ, Henry says thank you!

Iris Flavia said...

Great artist, huh?

A mysterious find indeed.
That reminds me of a Joshua tree. https://dnambiar.com/2023/10/joshua-tree-california.html

Have a good week, Iris. :)

That's a cool mural Iris. I saw the Joshua Tree first before I realized it had U2 on it. I hope you had a great start to the new week. hugs_Erika

Iris Flavia said...

dee Nambiar, I had no clue!

Erika, not really a U2-fan so I really... it was a mystery for me.

Granny Sue said...

Good idea! I will see if I can share Jessie's murals.

That mural is so moving.
