Lovely Lady in Kensington Market


Kensington Market is full of murals - some good, some not so much - but this has to be the most beautiful. This wonderful art nouveau inspired lady can be found along Augusta St on the side of a Victorian building. I think she is gorgeous! Haven't been able to ID the artist unfortunately.

    What a colorful, fancy, artsy mural! Nice way to brighten up the area and better than just a plain wall or graffiti!

    It certainly catches one's eye, and it obviously brightens up the day.

    Gorgeous. I don't know the actual modern-day artist, but it appears he or she was inspired by Mucha.

    This is fantastic! It's not common to find a graffiti inspired on Art Nouveau.
