This mural is so very large,(30' x 40') it is difficult to get a good photo of it' When you are looking at the close-ups, bear in mind that this is a FLAT wall...The "balcony" is not an architectural detail -- it is part of the painting, as are the shadows!!! The only "real" things are the six windows and the doorway on the left with the red-and-white striped awning above it.
The man and woman pictured ascending the staircase are renderings of, and a tribute to, Art Ginn's parents.
