This is such a fun meme... how else would I see these fabulous murals from around the globe!? These old steam trains bursting out of the walls look almost real.
Welcome to Monday Mural, Carole. All that steam and metal fairly shouts POWER. This must have been the feeling people had when they saw a locomotive for the first time. The fact that they're barreling at us from the past is almost daring us not to forget them. My hat's off to the artist. Thanks for being part of this week's Monday Mural.
thanks for visiting Snap Happy Birding, and for leaving a comment; I can still see them. Now both my blogs are resting in idle mode. It was time to give other things priority, even though I miss my regular blogging and the feedback that came my way over the years. Take care.
Wow! Hyper-realism. Such a well executed mural it turns into a work of art. Love steam trains, but they are sooo expensive here ...
ReplyDeleteLooks more like a broken wall but superbly executed. Great mural and thanks for showing.
ReplyDeleteYour photo brought back memories from when I was a kid and steam locomotives were common. Just like in the mural they were very powerful.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE these! We are a Railroad family so trains are just naturally exciting...these are very well done!
ReplyDeleteA great subject for the Monday Mural meme. Lots of creativity in Broken Hill.
ReplyDeleteThis looks very well done, especially as there is so much detail to be included in these engines.

ReplyDeleteBrilliant idea to have the trains smashing through the bricks like that - thanks for showing them Carole.
