These two murals sit on the two sides of a parking lot on 24th Street

They are by Mona Caron who has been in this website many, many times.

According to Caron’s website:
The mural comprises two paintings that face each other over a small park and parking lot in the Noe Valley neighborhood. As a tie-in to the weekly farmer’s market that is held there, both murals feature giant botanical illustrations of vegetables and their leaves and blossoms. A scroll-like ribbon weaves around the vegetables. Wherever the ribbon is larger and appears closer, there are views of the neighborhood depicted within it. On the Eastern wall, these views show scenes from Noe Valley’s past (late 1930’s) and a positive future vision. On the western wall, there are two views of the present: one of the upper, Western part of 24th Street (Noe Valley), and one of the adjacent Mission District part of the same street.

  1. I like it. It is really quite pretty.

  2. I really like all the details in both these murals.

  3. Perfect backdrop for a farmer’s market!

  4. Both are fun to look at and so much details in each one. They are like a mural within a mural.
