I like to continue my Mural series with this one.

This mural, painted by the Dutch artist Stefan Thelen (aka 'Super-A') can be found at the Market Place in Flushing, Zeeland, The Netherlands.

On this place stood from 1594 to 1809 a beautiful town hall. On July 30th, 1809 it was completely destroyed however by an English bombardment (in order to fight the troops of the emperor Napoleon that had conquered Flushing). The town hall and other historical destroyed building had to be rebuilt, but that didn't happen. Nowadays we can see on this mural how fine (a matter of nostalgia?) this town hall was.

By checking-out this link one can see how Stefan Thelen was creating this artwork.
