Color photo of a French door with window above it on the corner of the top floor of an old building, lit by the setting sun. There is a decorative iron railing on the balcony in front of the door. In the background is the water of Lisbon’s harbor and on the far shore hills is a huge religious monument.

🐓 Artist: #BAILON / #MateusBailon 🇧🇷 in City: #Lisbon #QuintaDoMocho / #Loures R. Agostinho Neto/ Portugal 🇵🇹 07/2017 - Title: "Galo do Mocho" - #Art #Streetart #Mural #Artist #Rooster #Classics #GoodMorning ! https://www.mateusbailon.art/

Streetartwall. This beautiful mural of a rooster was spray-painted on the outside wall of a three-story apartment building a few years ago. The rooster stands between a row of windows that are on the left side. Detailed and curved lines were used to create a proud blue and white rooster with a bushy crest and erect tail feathers, standing amidst tulip blossoms. Both the animal's body and the flowers have been drawn with fine lines, making the cockerel something special.
Info: The mural plays with two Portuguese symbols of folk art: the cockerel of Barcelos and the famous Portuguese tiles, the azulejos. The rooster heralds the sunrise and symbolizes the end of darkness and that a better day lies ahead. It also symbolizes courage and wisdom.
