I like to continue my Mural series with this one.
This mural on a 'blind' side wall of a shopping mall in Flushing, Zeeland, The Netherlands, is painted by the Dutch artist Stefan Thelen (aka 'Super-A') and it's named 'Flushing, 700 Years Maritime Town'. It shows a young woman surrounded by typical Flushing features such as the Scheldt Crane, and the shore light on the sea front.

Frank (flanno2610): "Who is the man with something sticking out of his face?:
Frank, it's an illustration that can be found in Jules Verne's novel 'From the Earth to the Moon'.
In 1902, the adventure inspired film director Georges M�li�s to film A trip to the moon, one of the first ever films.
This feature is related to the film festival 'Film by the sea' held in the 'Cine City' of Flushing yearly with more than 45,000 visitors.
The 'Cine City' has a mural as well.
I'll post an image of it in the near future.
