Paris Mural

“London-based Frenchman” Xavier Kreiss sent me this after/before photo of a Paris building mural. When you see the first photo, you probably won’t notice anything strange with it. Now when you jumped inside, and saw second photo… Bam! It hits you. Can you believe this whole building was almost-flat wall before artistic painting? Really awesome! Dozens of other cool murals like this one can be found if you browse murals category. Murals like this one, are called Trompe L’Oeil (French for “fool the eye”), and are in tight connection with 3D paintings that appear all over this site!

  1. how much of this is mural and how much is actual building renovation. Look at the railing on the roof. There has clearly been some renovation, but it’s a nice paint job.

    1. Theres actually railing in both.. Its just that the photos are on slightly different angles.

  2. Oh, come on. Its is a valid question. Red., i think he thought the doors were painted on too. COME ON PEOPLE, BE NICE!!!
