Murals seem to be very popular in Barcelona. Many shops protect their entrance and windows by metal rolling shutters when they are closed for business. Advertising graffiti has been added to these shutters. It is the first city we encounter who has this.
The snack bar where we had breakfast also used wall paintings for decorations. We found this very attractive. We saw an old mansion which received a complete new appearance by painting its full facade. Some shops even use murals in combination with product displays.
Murals of muur schilderwerken zijn zeer populair in Barcelona. Vele winkels beschermen hun ingang en ramen met metalen rolluiken na sluitingstijd. Graffiti reclameboodschappen worden op deze rolluiken gespoten. Barcelona is de eerste stad waar we zoiets zien.
De snack bar waar we ons ontbijt nuttigden had muurschilderwerken als decoratie. We vonden dit heel aanlokkelijk. Een oud herenhuis kreeg een volledig nieuwe uitstraling door de gevel over te schilderen en sommige winkels gebruiken murals in combinatie met etalages om hun producten te verkopen..
