Sheffield Murals by fishers

Sheffield Murals

Just over a week ago Katharine posted a shot of the view outside Sheffield railway station entrance ( http://365project.org/fishers/365/2014-01-24), and in that view was a long mural on the boards around a building sight.

This weekend I had the opportunity to get some close-up shots of parts of it, so here are three of them in the form of a collage.

The background in each shot is what you would see if there was a mirror there rather than boarding - the railway station, the blade sculpture and The Howard pub.

Superimposed on this are a variety of images of people, including a cartoon character in the top shot!

Sadly, the mural is rather battered in places, and the colours are rather faded, but I feel that it still forms a fascinating element of the street scene.

@pyrrhula

Thank you Ferry, and thank you for the fav! Such a shame that the mural is becoming rather faded and battered. I wish I'd got the photos when it was new.

Great shots and pleasing that someone has taken such an interest in them - sometimes we see these things, but never really look properly.
