Chichester Street Art

Amazing mural; well spotted and taken Keith.

I love coming across things like this. The smallest figure of the child letting go of a Brexit balloon is similar to Banksy's work, which I like a lot. The two children remind me of evacuees from WWII, with the box on her back! What can I say about the dog.....he's very big ;-))
Excellent shot Keith.

Thanks for your comprehensive thoughts Rosa.............I think you've nailed it with the Brexit balloon girl and the evacuee children. The huge dog remains a mystery!

I've stolen your thoughts to answer Jean Paul's comments below :-))

I love the 3 figures bottom right, very expressive.

wonderful graffitis!

A well done work...

Belle découverte!

Splendid contrast between an angry animal and the three delicate and expressive figurines bottom right!
Wonderful graffitis and very well show, Keith!

a very nice find Keith

The baloon girl, is it real Banksy?

I doubt it........but it's definitely in the "style" of Banksy!

That’s a very nice find, Keith !

Fine composition, Keith!

Il semble y avoir deux mondes sur ce mur. Est ce le même auteur qui a réalisé le chien et les enfants ? (ce n'est pas du tout le même style. Le chien a mis le nez rouge du clown mais ne fait pas rire. La petite fille semble faire le lien entre ces deux mondes mais envoie son coeur aux enfants. Ce coeur at-il à voir avec l'Europe ? Tout celà est trés expressif mais j'en cherche le sens. Peut être est ce une métaphore de la vie ? Amitié. Jean Paul

I don't know who the artists are, but I think it must be three different people. I know nothing about the huge dog, but the little girl with the balloon seems like something to do with Brexit. The two children are probably to do with the evacuation of children out of big cities into the countryside during WW2. You can see what looks like a gas-mask over one of the children's shoulder. There really doesn't seem to be a common theme I'm afraid.

A wonderful find! If that ballon girl isn't a real Banksy then it's a very good imitation:-)

Thank Gudrun............I doubt it's a Banksy...........but you're right it's obvously someone copying that style.

Thank you for that. You would think I'd have the gumption to find that myself wouldn't you?

Good of you to drop by!

Two Artists ! I don't know, the dog is a bold statement I would expect to see on walls in Ancient tombs. I am very much drawn to the children so very different and perhaps created by a more talented artist. Either a good talking point. Good street capture Keith.

What a contrast - the dainty little drawings on the left and the crude dog looming over them. The pipe is sort of comical. Makes a great photo!

Thank you all so much for your many comments and stars. This is probably the strangest set of graffiti I've found for ages!

Eine schöne Entdeckung, Keith!
