Ed Hicks was in Belfast in early March, 2023, to extend the mural in College St Mews (seen previously in Cool) and to repair part of the mural that had been damaged by a fire in one of the wheelie-bins. As before, this new section combines technical drawings with various creatures and sundry items.
If you know anything about the characters or references, please comment or get in touch. The info plaque in the street (seen in Cool) mentions baker and philanthropist Bernard Hughes, but the central portrait does not seem to be of him.
At the same time, Ed also contributed a piece to the Women’s Work jam in College Court (see We Built This).
