mural by artist fritz

This mural can be seen in Sligo near the Gaavogue River.  The wall was commissioned by Sligo Tidy Towns.  Fritz wanted to create a mural that celebrated the Sligo connection that Bram Stoker has to the town and it’s possible influence on writing Dracula.

    Don't think wolves exist anymore in Ireland but what do I know.

    Wonderful mural. It almost looks like his eyes might glow in the dark.

    Did not know that Bram Stoker was from Sligo. The wolf reference is a bit arcane, but it makes for a powerful image.

    Great find Bill! I like the abbey ruins in the mural too as well as the wolf.

    Very strong image; is it the stance, the colour, or the muzzle. . perhaps all three together.

    This wolf is pretty noble looking. Not at Dracula scary. Otherwise, he'd give me nightmares. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
