Above is a new mural by JMK (Jonny McKerr – Fb) in Hogarth Street (in Tiger’s Bay) with images of the Belfast Blitz – in the apex a Nazi bomber sets buildings alight; in the main panel, people, including a milkman, walk among the bombed-out buildings.
900 people died and half the homes in Belfast were destroyed or damaged (WP).
In the bottom right corner, men listen to a woman testing a piano after it was moved. The garden wall (to the right of the shot) has an outline on it but is not yet finished.
Update 2013-10-16: The garden wall to the right has been completed. It features a painted frame surrounding a manufactured plaque. See below for an image.
