Tuesday Streetart – Banksy Originals- 21

BRISTOL, UK

Here are two original murals by Banksy in Bristol.

Well-hung Lover is best viewed from the Park Street bridge above Frogmore Street, as the work is approximately five metres above street level.

The attention to detail is impressive because the windows are of the same size as those on surrounding buildings.

The Girl with the Pierced Eardrum in Hanover Place

This is a favourite rendition of Vermeer’s famous painting Girl with a Pearl Earring. Painted in October 2014, Banksy replaces the girl’s earring with an outdoor security alarm making it The Girl with the Pierced Eardrum.

      Happy New Year too Nes. These are the only two that I saw because the artworks are too far apart. But grateful to have seen them. ❤️
