Wola mural #2, a photo from Mazowieckie, East

Photographer's Note

This is the same painted house that I showed in my last post. On the third wall, we can see a few characteristic buildings in the Wola district. You can recognize the Palace of Culture and some high scrapers.
The three round buildings, called Rotunda or Polish Colosseum, belong to the Warsaw Gasworks Museum located in the complex of the former Wola Gas Factory built in 1886–1888.

The museum opened in 1977. It contains various machines which were involved in the production and metering of gas as well as gas lamps from the 19th and 20th centuries.
btw, I was never been there, I would like to see the inside of these buildings but I think it is closed.

Wola is a district in western Warsaw, an industrial area with traditions reaching back to the early 19th century. It underwent a transformation into an office (commercial) and residential district. Several museums are located in Wola, notably the Warsaw Uprising Museum.
During the Warsaw Uprising (August–October 1944), fierce battles raged in Wola. Around 8 August, Wola was the scene of the largest single massacre by German forces in Poland, of 40,000 to 50,000 civilians.
(From Wikipedia)

Who would think that similar destructions and massacres we would observe in our century?

Hello Malgo,
An interesting complement to the last photo by showing a number of buildings well known to everyone living in Warsaw. I only recognized the Palace of Culture. The sunny day created good colours.
Thank you for your latest critique. But didn't you see the workshop photos or the one I posted earlier this week?
Have a nice weekend,
Gert

Beautiful painted big wall, Malgo.
Vivid colors and good sense of a 3D upon.
Wish you a nice weekend,
Ike

Hello Malgo,

What a wonderful, bright piece of artwork to enliven the repetition of tall, geometric skyscrapers. It is very clearly captured in your fine exposure.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Malgo,
This side looks wonderful too. Now we see some green trees and painted buildings of different styles. This place was certainly worth a second upload.

The mural is impressive. The point of view is showing the details of the mral and of the buildings. The light is enhancing the beaut of the colors. Have a nice day.

Hello Malgo,
A nice continuation of your previous photo.
This building is no longer unnoticed by anyone.
So far I've never heard of the Polish Colosseum. The Palace of Culture and Science is clearly recognizable. We also see a beautiful building with a red tower and green and blue spire.
The feeling of spaciousness in this street changes enormously because of this painted facade.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Malgo,
This is another dynamic mural, and I like how it shows so many Warsaw buildings. The colors are great, and so is the warm sunlight. Take care!

Hello MALgo,
Your previous photo and this one , are fantastic !!!
I did look in Google map ... wow! what's a transformation ... this ugly building with broken patches on the wall into this , this ... excellent mural.
I love this side of mural. So futuristic looking and have better sunlight enhancing the mural more 'strikingly in colour' against the blue sky.
I think I would be happy to live in the Wola district. So modern and clean.
I wonder ... I also see further up a street in Warnenczyka 17a ... a similar building like this one. Does it have a mural too ?
Tytus Brzozowski is a brilliant painter. Genius man.
Tfs,
Loong
p/s: Yes, the mill is still working. I'll upload it again.

Hello Malgo,
Great to see this side of the house as well, which is covered in so many wonderful murals in very nice and bright colours. The sunlight was also perfect to bring them out at their best.

Ciao cara Malgo, great view of fantastic nurale, wonderful colors, fine details, splendid light and excellent sharpness, very well done, my friend, ciao Silvio

Ciao Malgo,the 3 round buildings speak of the history of Wola and the massacres of years ago, but it seems that they have not taught anything and still today we continue to fight and die, unfortunately. Excellent photo, this other facade is much richer and more colorful and you captured it in super quality! Have a nice Sunday and thanks,Luciano

Hi Malgo.
The side of the house is wonderful, even more sensational than the other façade, with this sample of the city's monuments.
A nice color, good lighting and perfect sharpness.
Well done. I like.
Enjoy the day.
Kind regards.
Luis.

Hello Malgo,

Another tremendous mural with vibrant colour and good sharpness. I like the angled pov showing 2 façades. Tfs!

Hello Malgo, another eye catching mural, what a clever and talented artist.
The surrounding more modern buildings seem to complement it.
The light was really in your favour as it highlights all the bright and beautiful colours.
Kind regards, Jean.
