Stavanger is the fourth biggest city in Norway. It is situated on the southwest coast.
My aim is to try to capture something from every day, from the area nearby too, and when I am not at home I will still try to put up a photo from my archive.
Welcome back for another look.

An old mural.
This is an old mural.
It is made by German soldiers who occupied Norway for 5 years under the 2WW.
Some of the soldiers have made this in the cellar under Obrestad light house.
This girl seems to come from Pacific Islands, perhaps Tahiti ?
ReplyDeleteIt does have a South Pacific feel. Interesting that German soldiers of that era would have gone that way with their own art.
ReplyDeleteDreaming of being elsewhere perhaps.
ReplyDeleteDreaming the war away...
ReplyDeleteHow interesting that the mural has a tropical setting; yes, perhaps dreaming of a different time and place.

I think the history and age make it even more special, wonderful find Gunn.
ReplyDeleteThe soldier that made this was talented! Arianna
