The host (Porto). CCC's Street Art Contest #140

in StreetArtlast year

Photography submitted to the contest

Hi,

This week I decided to participate in the contest with a classic of urban art in the city of Porto (Portugal) which is the mural "The Host" which is located near the Luis I bridge.

This mural is currently quite deteriorated because it was painted by Frederico Draw several years ago and shows the image of his own grandfather extending his hand to anyone who accesses the city of Porto from Ribera (on the other side of the Douro River).

The kind eyes and the outstretched hand is a true reflection in my opinion of the good welcome I have always had when visiting the welcoming and beautiful city of Porto.

Whenever I visit this city I always like to go to the Luis I Bridge to see the river bank from there.

The Fernandine Wall

And to see if there are still remains of the great mural of the host.

Best regards

Finally, I want to thank the support to this contest given by @ervin-lemark @trincowski, @heroldius, @melinda010100, @ecency, @tobetada and @arcange.

Regards.

Hola me encanta este tipo de concurso.

Tus fotos son bellas, mas la principal, es una lastima que por el tiempo se pierdan esas obras de arte, que mas que eso son historias de ese lugar que deberian de mantenerlo.

Son obras al aire libre y es normal que vayan desapareciendo.
Aun con el tiempo mantienen su belleza

Si eso es muy cierto, estan aun muy bellas, que seria una pena que se pierda pero asi es la vida y el clima no sabe de eso je je

Cool work. I saw this one during my stay in Porto, few years ago. Very cool city, food, beer, sun, Street Art. Perfect 😀 Thanks for sharing these pics on The StreetArt Community.

It is a wonderful city.

Visiting it in spring and summer is a spectacle.

And there is street art on almost every street corner.

Exactly the whole city is covered with Street Art. I have to go to Lisbon, it seems to be as cool.

Lisbon is also wonderful. It is a much bigger city and I recommend that you have many days to visit it completely.
