During these last couple of days I am going to try to show you more of the pictures I have in my inventory.  For this entry I am putting up images of wall art, both deliberate and found.

A number of times I have past repairmen on ladders, always with another fellow at the base.  At first I thought that the guy on the ground was holding the ladder, but then it occurred to me that he is there to prevent a vehicle from bumping into the base of the ladder which is placed in the street - a very narrow street!



Here are some murals (I don't know who painted them.)  The first one depicts the early events of the independence with Igancio Allende on horseback - he was a captain in the Spanish army who fought for Mexican independence.  The mural is in the historic city hall.



This one is in the Institute of Art and depicts the history of Mexico dating back to its independence from Spain.  Again you see Allende in uniform and on horseback.



This one is also at the Institute of Art.  I don't know what it depicts, but it sure is powerful.



Next I am showing you a couple of photos of decorative wall art taken in the streets of San Miguel.



Here are three of the hand painted patterns that one sees that separate wall colors along the streets.



The next group of pictures are abstract compositions I discovered in the stains and patinas of the walls.





The next group of found compositions were photographed in Guanajuato.  San Miguel does not have graffiti or postered walls in the historic area.
