De Profundis by halkia

De Profundis

8.09 pm: This wonderful poem by Spanish poet García Lorca can be seen on a side wall of the Faculty of Law, near my house. It's part of a project that ran between 1992 and 2005 and resulted in 103 wall poems all over town in a variety of languages and scripts.

For a translation of this poem (English and Dutch) please check out http://www.muurgedichten.nl/lorca.html, for all the poems http://www.muurgedichten.nl/indexopontstaan.html.
What a great idea ot have poems on the walls throughout an area, a lovely way to brighten up an area and community. Love the way you've captured this with the lighting, contrast and angle.

What a great idea - I love poetry. We have an ugly side wall - I wonder if my husband fancies a project....
