The Deal by JPS is located near some nightclubs. The nature of the deal is not evident and leaves room for speculation. However, the children are dressed in the style of World War II, as seen on the gas mask box.

Ben Wilson has decided to turn the trodden chewing gums on the ground into artworks, probably the smallest ones here in Bristol. Here, Leonard Lane itself is depicted.

Clothed with the Sun by EL MAC. With the highest rate of teenage pregnancy, the UK also has a high number of single mothers. This is a tribute to them, a very photorealistic image directly above Bluebell Place, a birthing clinic in Bristol. The image was inspired in part by the paintings of the Virgin Mary by Renaissance artists Raphael and Michelangelo.

The duel of Bristol by Irish artist Connor Harrington. The painting depicts an Irish flag between the legs of the fencer on the right and red-blue-white clothing on the fencer on the left. Possibly an allusion to the conflict between Ireland and the UK.

The pineapple on the right side of the image by Duncan McKellar symbolizes both prosperity and the slave trade, directly connected here with the bank in the background and the old trading building in the old town next to it.

Today was a busy day because the main reasons for choosing Bristol were Banksy and many other street artists, and Bristol is also the hometown of Edward Teach, better known as the notorious pirate Black Beard.

To keep things organized, I will split today's program into two parts, and this one is about street art.

The artworks are often strategically placed and have a direct connection to the corresponding building. More about that in the captions.

Of course, there are many more such works. Let's see what else I discover or how much time I have for it.
