Luas Station Mural

Murals Ireland was delighted to work with R.P.A and Luas to design and develop the 130 ft mural at the Belgard Luas station in Dublin.
In consultation with Tony Williams of R.P.A it was decided that the mural should depict scenes of Dublin City as it was in the 1950’s, and that it should be painted in the style of L.S Lowry, Known for his “Matchstick men and matchstick cats and dogs”.

We chose many public buildings the G.P.O, Trinity Collage, City hall but were also careful to ensure that working class streets of old included, Winetavern Street / Thomas Davis Street etc.

In our painting of the Ha'penny Bridge we included an Irish round tower and used the bridge as a conduitl through time to take us to our modern round tower (“The Spire”).

John Carpenter, (Dublin) John Russell (Dublin + Australia) and Sandra Johnston (Dublin) worked for 2 weeks to paint the mural and we thank all the new friends we made on the station. Many thanks to The Boys from L and L Autos and our neighbours for their support.
