After remembering the atrocities of war, how not to dream of peace? White hand stretching out to black hand, black hand ready to hold white hand, background of flying doves. It's only a mural on the corner of Park and Pitt Streets, but it's up to us to look up to it for inspiration.Après les souvenirs des atrocités de la guerre hier, comment ne pas rêver de paix ? Main blanche et main noire se tendant l'une vers l'autre, sur fond de colombes s'envolant... ce n'est qu'une peinture murale au coin de Park et Pitt Streets, mais il nous appartient de lever les yeux pour y puiser l'espoir et l'énergie...

Muito bom o seu blog, um grande abraço daqui de Salvador-Ba/ Brazil
that's nice.
your blog makes me want to visit sydney!
great shot like this kind of murals
love the interpretation!
hope to see more colours in the future
The painting is very nice and the message is clear. Is it just a "private" initiative? It's anyhow much nicer than most of the enormous commerical wall pictures you can now and then see, but I guess you also have some of those. However, such pictures sometimes cover an empty and ugly naked wall and can now and then be quite artistic. Maybe some photos to come?
Merci for dropping by my blog!
Yours is lovely.

l'idee est tres belle, de quoi en faire un beau poster pour la paix, l'amour et l'amitie dans le monde (le retour en force du love and peace).
merci de nous faire profiter de cette peinture murale
Nicely said and better to look at than the side of the building. Your photo captured it perfectly.

i just put out my hand and did what the photos shows. sometimes I just do silly things.

The mural fits perfevtly the aspiration, "Things would be didfferent if only things were different"; but war will only become less likely when the problem is seen in terms of understanding the [often less than pleasant] realities of human nature, and the best methods of bringing about the channeling of our actions into directions more likely to succeed than simply relying upon that unquestionably true, but equally irrelevant hope,
"If only things were different, things would be different."
Main noire main blanche... A Cergy on ne fait même pas attention à ça et je trouve que c'est extra
Mes enfants ne voit pas la différence de couleur de peau, pour eux c'est pas plus définissant que d'avoir les yeux bkleus ou les cheveux noirs
La preuve : mon fils aîné a parlé de sa prof de français pendant deux ans, une amie qui avait son fils dans la même classe aussi et j'ai seulement découvert en allant la voir qu'elle était noire.
i noticed that for teh first time the other day. i really like it stuck there midst the buildings. very serene and colourful
beautiful mural beautiful message!
Inspiration can be found anywhere if only the mind is willing.
