Monday Murals - Magic Carpet

Andy | Monday, October 01, 2012 | Best Blogger Tips

Entitled “Magic Carpet : A View From Above” and was created by Jennifer DeSorcy in November of 2000. This painting depicts many significant features of St. Thomas from the town's past and present, including the City Hall, the Jumbo Monument, the Street Railway, and the Old St. Thomas Church. This mural was funded by the City Of St. Thomas, the 2000 Millennium Committee, the Downtown Development Board and On Track. I'm linking to Monday Mural.

  1. What a nice mural! I like the "scroll" on the side telling a bit of what you will find there. I also like the "from above" perspective!

  8. There's a lovely, dreamy quality to this mural. Maybe the POV contributes to this. I'm impressed the city commissioned it as part of the millennium celebration. Local pride shines through the art. Thank you for contributing to Monday Mural.
