Titanic Town – South Belfast

This is a May 2012 mural celebrating workers at Harland & Wolff and the building of the Titanic (and Olympic) 1908-1911 on the gable wall of Allen’s Tours (Allen’s Furniture)

The artist is Ed Reynolds, whose site contains images of him at work on the piece (steadyhanded.com). The painting is somewhat reminiscent of Magritte’s 1959 Le Mois Des Vendages.

Combermere Street, (Donegall Rd. just before Sandy Row), south belfast

    Brilliant, I like that you included stuff that photographers traditionally try to avoid like lamp posts and bus stops:) Fantastic site well done
