Painted in 2010 by artist John Kuna this mural shows a cut-way into what might have been the manse of the Islington Wesleyan Methodist Church during an inspection of the home's interior by the manse committee in 1888. The picture gives us an idea of the furnishings and construction methods of the time.
If anyone out there knows why my pic is in the middle of my post instead of at the top please help!
W O N D E R F U L !!
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool!
ReplyDeleteI wish these Jane's Walks weren't held on such an otherwise full weekend!
hmm, did you start typing this post and then post the picture? That's the only thing I can think of. But I'm sure you also thought of that.
What a great idea for a mural, have not seen one like this before.
ReplyDeleteThis is a fabulous mural looks like we are really seeing in the house.
ReplyDeleteI have that trouble with my photo being in the wrong place. It depends where your cursor is when you enter your text. You need to identify where the cursor is, sometimes I just start over.
I love this mural! What a cool way to show a blast from the past. :)
ReplyDeleteSorry I can't help you with the blogger issues. I guess you've been migrated to the "improved" version. I don't like it much. :(
That is sooooo fun!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a great idea, delightfully executed!
ReplyDeleteNow, this one is a marvelous and creative mural. Love it!
ReplyDeleteSorry, I can't help you with the jumping photograph. I know my limitations.
In my opinion this is the coolest mural you've shown us, love it RedPat!!!
ReplyDeleteIf it happens again and you are not happy, don't worry, you can format the post after publishing it. ;-)
I didn't know that Jane's Walk was an international event. Ours occurred last week. Love the mural and the cut away technique. Looking at it is like being in a museum. Cool capture, Pat. Thanks for participating in this week's Monday Mural.
ReplyDeleteThat something you don't see everyday.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's spectacular! Love.
ReplyDeleteabsolutely beautiful, it looks so real is scary.

This is truly amazing! What great work!
ReplyDeleteSo funny and interesting mural. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love the effect of trompe-l'œil Pat, it adds a whole new dimension to a mural, well shown here.
ReplyDeleteI'm a sucker for tromp-l'oeil too. Thanks for sharing this Pat.
ReplyDeletewhat an amazing mural! I'd never heard of Monday Murals before, either so I'll need to check that out!
ReplyDeleteFantastic, like a giant doll's house!
ReplyDeleteFantastic, like a giant doll's house!
ReplyDeleteThe new Blogger does kind of jump around when you least expect it.
ReplyDeleteThat apart, great trompe l'oeuil.
I think I mussed a fantastic-sounding event! I would have loved this walk.
ReplyDeleteThis mural is a real piece of art. I'm interested to know why you can't rearrange the photo. It should be easy using Blogger Dashboard. How do you upload your post?
ReplyDeletevery, very cool mural, RedPat. It must have taken some time to create!
ReplyDeleteThis, and probably any of the Jane's Walks, would be a wonderful walk to go on. This is an excellent tromp-l'oeil! It's as if we were looking right into the house. I'm looking forward to seeing more murals from this walk.
ReplyDeleteTo move the image to the top, open the blog post to edit, click on the photo, and drag it up to the top.
Fantastic mural!
ReplyDeleteNow that's a clever mural! And you never told me you live in Islington! We'll have to hook up for a coffee one day..:-)
ReplyDeleteI agree with a previous comment. My first thought was of a dolls house. Great capture.
