A Tribute to the Beatles, in Moscow, in the form of a Graffiti!
It's been a while since I've posted some Graffiti material, so today I bring you a couple of pieces I've found in the centre of Moscow.
These are located in an alley and - by the looks of it - they're been here for quite some time.
Here's a strange concept that I will call "Beatles & Cats."
How cute is this? Probably a reference to their song "Catswalk."
I've tried to shoot the whole wall in a single image but I had no angle. This was the best I could do:
The rest of the wall was equally dedicated to The Beatles, as you can see by the references to their song "Yellow Submarine" and by the swimming Shark.
For those who don't know, Shark was the nickname of Allen Klein, the manager of The Beatles.
This last part was my favourite. Again, it's full of references to the band's songs and albums... "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", "Stairway To Heaven", "Yellow Submarine", "1", "Blackbird" and of course, there had to be Green Apples, a reference to the logo of Apple Records - The Beatles own record company.
This is a very creative mural and I think it's still cool nowadays, even with all the missing parts. But it has seen better days, for sure. It must have been something incredible to look at, a few years ago.
I hope you have enjoyed this post.

Cool! I always wonder how and why people do graffiti on public walls and not get caught and told off. Yes it's a great way to spread art so I wish I could do it too if I get paid to do it. Haha.
What's the artist's name? Can't read Cyrillic. 😅
In most of Europe, it's legal.
And where it isn't, the authorities look away in most cases.
The name of the artist is Бумито (Bumito)
Thanks for your comment.
Ok thanks!

This is such an amazing piece of #streetart!! I'm not sure when I have ever seen one as cool as this!
Thanks. I have seen better. Eheheh. But this one was pretty cool, for sure.
I havent for a while. Washington DC doesn't have that much graffiti!
You mean... the Kremlin is more tolerant of Street Art than the White House...!? Does Trump know about that? Maybe that's why he wants to build a wall? So they can Graffiti the heck out of it? Mwuahahahhaahah! 😅
Beautiful street art! Outstanding stuff, @trincowski. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for your visit, @zorank!
I think you missed out "strawberry field" too @trincowski 😉 what a creative artists, I can't believe that it is from an alley in Moscow😊 Beatles really universally rock the world!
Nice catch, thanks. Yes, they were a World phenomena! :-)
Whoever painted that is awesome lol, that first "Beatles and Cats" graffiti looks really cool.
Thanks. I'm glad you liked it.
I love graffiti and this is some interesting very specific versions of it. Great colour in this too, I'm glad you captured it before it gets tagged over.
It lasted 5 years already... there's no sign of vandals, only marks of the passage of time (and weather).
Thanks for your comment.
