The Meat Industry by Raymond Bertrand
*
Notice the clever use of the windowRaymond Bertrand (1901-1986) was a native San Franciscan. He studied at the California School of Fine Arts where he later taught Lithography. Bertrand was primarily a landscape panter, a critic once commented that Bertrand used “freezing blues, whites and greys” in his oil in a “small but icy collection of arctic landscapes”. His name is used as the “author” of the book titled Rape, Mayhem and Vagrancy in the law library scene at Coit Tower.

What is that guy in the second shot doing…pretty barbaric looking. Interesting mural though.
Wonderful images.

Not one for vegetarians! 😉
I think it’s easier for most of us to forget that the meat we eat was once on the hoof!
Wonderful murals, oh I believe the guy in the second shot is singing the hair off… Thank you for sharing on Weekly Top Shot #34!
I too was thinking about all those SF vegetarians when I looked at this:) Great mural!
San Francisco is such a great city and Coit Tower is beautiful. I’ve climbed up there many time.
Beautiful murals.
