Denton Mural: A longer view

(large file: click to view full size)

Two weeks ago I posted views of the left hand side of the Denton mural. Last week I showed you the right hand side.

The mural was painted on the wall of Denton Pool facing Victoria Park in 2000. It was conceived by David Vaughn and commissoned by the Denton Town Twinning Association. It serves to commemorate both the second millenniumm and the continuing friendship between the people of Denton and Montigny le Brettoneux.

The pano above was created by Dave Hitchborne from a series of photographs I'd posted to Geograph.

I've used Dave's image to create the one below which shows the whole length of the mural.

To view them full size you will probably need to right click and save them into an image viewer.

  3. I like seeing the mural's building in the stitched photo. Really shows you the scale of this work. Very cool. Thanks, Gerald, for participating in this week's Monday Mural.

  4. Excellent - and looong - mural! The painting style makes me think of Seurat (as in his The Bathers).

    [PS. I'm not a robot, and I am averse to proving it with inane captchas I cannot read. Sorry, I already suffer very slow blog hopping because I must use an anonymous proxy to bust through the China firewall, and these captchas just make the suffering worse.]

  5. A huge mural, someone must have had a lot of time to paint all these walls.
