Local Wall Art
I was walking on the path to Fira town on the island of Santorini one morning, from my hotel in Firostefani and I couldn't help but notice this bit of wall art. I don't know its meaning or purpose, but I enjoyed its color and the way it was framed with wildflowers. I love these little bits of wall art as distinguished from simple graffiti.
Fira is the modern capital of the Greek Aegean island of Santorini. A traditional settlement, "Fira" derives its name from an alternative pronunciation of "Thira", the ancient name of the island itself.
