In the south Bronx many years ago I remember seeing panels placed over boarded up windows that had scenes to make it look wile there were window boxes with flowers, curtains, and sometimes a person looking out from the window. I looks so much better than a boarded up window.
Thank you all. Malyss, such an excellent question. Interestingly, the river and bridge might be seen looking out the back side of the building, the railroad track might be see looking out the front of the building. The result is a strangely surreal scene.
Ah that's great, I love it. The "windowals" (I mean murals or trompe-l'oeil)are wonderful and the flaking paint just adds to the whole scene. Are you out and about again?
I tend to agree with Lizzie. The concept is interesting, especially with the explanation that those scenes are possible when looking THROUGH the windows from some angle. However, the old wall, its peeling paint, and the unadorned, decaying window frames would have pleased me more.
Wonderful artistic creation Brattcat. Thank you for you comments while I was away. I have given you a Sunshine Award, you may like to check my blog. Cheers. Melbourne Daily Photo

Creative, love it!
I suppose those are painted on plywood that covered the windows? Nice work too.

That is an interesting way to brighten up the facade of an old building.
I love this attempt at pleasing the eye. . .
Not only that river, but those railroad tracks! You live in a really exciting community!
Well, a creative one, for sure!
Have a great day!
Let's say we are inside the house looking outdoors.
Looks like a mural you might see here.
That's one way to spruce up an old building. I like the colors against the white bricks.
Sunny :)
It certainly brightens up this wall.
I love the pis on the old brick. They 'bridge' the gaps quite well. Very nice. MB
This is such a cool shot! Love the composition!
I think there are a couple places in so. Maine where the rivers are flowing through REAL windows this AM.
Neat! What a creative idea!
I'm wondering if they painted what they could see trough the windows, when they existed..or is it only a dream of a view?..
Great eye and great caption!
Oh, I love the pictures! But I love the worn texture of the brick the best.
That is very cool! I first thought it was reflection in glass, but no glass in those windows I'm guessing!

Nice catch. These windows are enjoyable to look at.
Makes me wonder if this is t."another "The River Runs Through It"
Talented muralist - talented photographer. Super.

Beautiful! And quite poignant too, considering that state of the building.
Puzzling and amazing!
It seems like a huge and well done graffiti!
