You have me wondering now because I don't recall seeing it in 2015, but this is my photo from 2017.That’s one of my favourites. Spouse saw it on his walk... strangely, I can’t remember it on mine In that area.
Yes, I was 2014 for the “full” from SJPdP to SdC, and I joined him half-way in 2018 at Fromistá so missed the first 3 weeks...You have me wondering now because I don't recall seeing it in 2015, but this is my photo from 2017.
Could you have possibly walked earlier than your husband? Maybe it was possibly quite new when I took the picture.
Lovely! I must google this location.Near Santa Maria la Real Church in SangüessaView attachment 98942
It is on the via AragonesLovely! I must google this location.
Haunting.This is on the side of a building in Igüeña on the Olvidado. I have walked by this twice now and find the gaze haunting. This part of Spain has a love/hate relationship with the (now essentially disappeared) coal industry. They mourn the loss of the jobs and the economy while at the same time you will see memorials to the many miners who have lost their lives in those mines.

I walked the Portuguese starting in Porto and do not remember those, but I am not always observant. Or possibly you started in Lisbon?Here are some we saw on Portuguese Camino in 2018.

We started in Fatima, but there are several routes, these were in the town, Caldas de Reyes, España.I walked the Portuguese starting in Porto and do not remember those, but I am not always observant. Or possibly you started in Lisbon?
These are fabulous!Big Trash Animals
I stumbled across another one today by accident in Fundão on the Caminho Nascente: the wolf. If you look very closely, you can see a camino marker on the far left.Those who have been on camino and/or travelled in Portugal may be familiar with Bordalo II and his unusual and extraordinary street art, which involves making sculptures from garbage. In particular, his Big Trash Animals series is quite prominent throughout Portugal.
What a creative, amazing, and awesome display!My favorite souvenir is to take pictures of art and then reproduce them at home. My local photo chain will reprint on bamboo paper which gives the photo the look of the original canvas.
Now I’ve seen these terrific pictures of street art I am going to start seeking them out for my wall of souvenirs.View attachment 101396
Sorry to resurrect an old post, just wanted to say thank you for the brilliant idea. I really love this! The method you use to hang them on your wall is also interesting, I haven't seen a set up like that before.My favorite souvenir is to take pictures of art and then reproduce them at home.
