Hi everyone,
I usually post Fridays and Tuesdays, but I have photographed a mural last week, which I would like to show you:
I visited Krakow in Poland last week and I saw this mural as we were walking into the old part of the city.
It has an inscription/signature just above the door on the left. It reads:
Project: Darek Vasina
Studio2
Wykonanie: Tupet
Sightseeing

I found something about the artist on the Internet and I used Google Translate to translate the Polish text into English:
