Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HDWTNN - Large republican mural commemorating Cumann na mBan fills the gable wall of a building at the corner of Beechmount Avenue and the Falls Road in West Belfast. The artwork combines portraits, historical photography, Irish-language text and nationalist symbolism to celebrate the contribution of women to the Irish revolutionary movement. A bilingual street sign reading Beechmount Avenue and Ascaill Ard na bhFeá appears above the painted scene.
The dominant portrait on the left depicts Countess Constance Markievicz wearing a green military-style uniform. Across the centre, a formation of Cumann na mBan members marches forward in period dress, while an armed and partly veiled female figure stands at the right. The group's emblem is represented by the abbreviated lettering C na mB incorporated into the outline of a rifle. A Celtic interlace pattern frames the upper and side edges of the blue composition.
The words Céad Bliain , meaning one hundred years, refer to the centenary of Cumann na mBan, founded in Dublin on 2 April 1914. The organisation worked alongside the Irish Volunteers and its members participated in the 1916 Easter Rising as couriers, nurses, intelligence gatherers and combatants. Markievicz served with the Irish Citizen Army during the Rising and was stationed around St Stephen's Green in Dublin.
Painted in 2014, the mural replaced an earlier Fianna Éireann centenary image that also featured Markievicz. The Irish inscription along the bottom reads Nà saoirse go saoirse na mban , commonly translated as There is no freedom until the freedom of women . It links the republican commemoration with a broader statement about women's liberation and political equality. Photograph records one of the many political murals associated with the Falls Road and West Belfast. Such artwork forms part of the area's visible historical landscape, presenting local interpretations of conflict, resistance, identity and remembrance on prominent public walls.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3EBGJNR - The Village Green in Levenshulme, Manchester, is shown with a colourful community stock-photo/gotonysmith-Mural.html?sortBy=relevant&pseudoid=237DAF28-A4ED-4448-8173-C0E81ABEEC6F Target=_Blank>mural painted across a low brick wall, featuring large white lettering, leaf shapes, butterflies, ladybirds and a striking blue tit perched on a branch. The image captures a small urban green space with benches, planting beds, winter-bare tree branches and the signage of Levenshulme Auto Repair Centre visible above the wall, placing the scene in a mixed residential, commercial and neighbourhood setting. It is useful for editorial stories about Greater Manchester street art, Levenshulme regeneration, community-led public realm improvements, urban nature, local identity, pocket parks, neighbourhood greening, mural art and the reuse of modest city spaces as places to sit, meet and add colour to the street. The blue tit and insects give the mural an accessible wildlife theme, linking the photograph to biodiversity, nature in the city, bird art, environmental education, urban ecology and the softer visual language often used in community arts projects. The setting also reflects Levenshulme's wider character as a diverse south Manchester suburb known for independent shops, railway links, markets, terraced streets, community activism and changing urban culture. The parked benches, damp paving and overcast light give the photograph a documentary feel rather than a polished promotional look, showing how public art sits alongside everyday garages, brick walls, railings and local businesses. The image has stock value for articles about Manchester neighbourhoods, street murals, urban renewal, local parks, anti-graffiti art, community pride, public art funding, social value, placemaking, high street backlands and the role of small green spaces in dense inner-city districts. It can also illustrate wider themes around bringing colour to overlooked corners, creating calmer public spaces, and using birds, flowers and insects as optimistic symbols of local environmental care.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HDPKXC - Murals in Northern Ireland have become symbols of Northern Ireland, depicting the region's past and present political and religious divisions.
Belfast and Derry contain arguably the most famous political murals in Europe. It is believed that almost 2,000 murals have been documented since the 1970s. In 2014, the book, The Belfast Mural Guide estimated that, in Belfast, there were approximately 300 quality murals on display, with many more in varying degrees of age and decay. Murals commemorate, communicate and display aspects of culture and history. The themes of murals often reflect what is important to a particular community. A mural therefore exists to express an idea or message and could generally be seen as reflecting values held dear to that community.
In Irish republican areas the themes of murals can range from the 1981 Irish hunger strike, with particular emphasis on strike leader Bobby Sands
murals of international solidarity with revolutionary groups are equally common, as are those which highlight a particular issue, for example the Ballymurphy Massacre or the McGurk's Bar bombing. In working class unionist communities, murals are used to promote Ulster loyalist paramilitary groups such as the Ulster Defence Association and Ulster Volunteer Force and commemorate their deceased members. However traditional themes such as William III of England and the Battle of the Boyne, the Battle of the Somme and the 36th Ulster Division are equally common

Photographed on 21 May 2023. WRDSMTH is an LA-based street artist who aspires to inspire others on a daily basis with colorful and well-chosen words crafted into indelible thoughts and phrases that he paints/pastes onto walls around the world. Read more at maybe buy some of his merch ! Brick Lane developed through successive migrant communities and industries in London's East End, becoming especially associated with Jewish tailoring and later the Bangladeshi community. The former Truman Brewery complex has been reused for markets, offices, exhibitions and creative businesses, helping turn the area into a major destination for street art, food, fashion and independent retail. Looking at public realm, the longer history is that monuments and civic artworks are part of the visual history of place
Their subjects reveal whom a community chose to celebrate, while later reinterpretation or controversy can change the meaning of an apparently permanent object. The background to industrial archaeology is that industrial heritage links architecture and machinery with the people who worked in mines, potteries, foundries and factories
As production declined or modernised, many sites were demolished, adapted or preserved as museums and regeneration projects. Within the history of shopfront, local businesses provide unusually precise social-history evidence because names, branding and uses change more quickly than the buildings they occupy
A shop, café, pub or service company can disappear while the façade survives, leaving photographs as a record of the previous commercial life of the street. In 2026, public realm remains relevant because contemporary street art continues to blur the line between unofficial expression, commissioned mural and tourist attraction
Images are therefore relevant to urban culture, creative.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R39XY7 - This is the end of a second decade making street art for Dr.D ( aka @Subvertiser ) and the second solo show. There won't be another one for ten years. 'Panicky in the UK' is a collection of the past 20 years of Dr.D's work.
About
'Panicky in the UK' BSMT presents a subversion art exhibition by Dr.D (aka Subvertiser) with Benjamin Irritant and Lazy Edwin.
This is the end of a second decade making street art for Dr.D ( aka @Subvertiser ) and the second solo show. There won't be another one for ten years. 'Panicky in the UK' is a collection of the past 20 years of Dr.D's work that takes like a sampler from the signage of the street and remixes it with the misheard and repurposed phrases of everyday conversations.
Dr. D aka Subvertiserhas been like the window wiper to the rain of advertising we suffer daily. His bus stop and billboard interventions have forced us to stop, recalibrate and question what we have seen and believed for twenty years! Dr. D will be showing alongside two contemporaries, Benjamin Irritant and Edwin who also work with humorous word play and anti-establishment rhetoric while having a keen eye on the climate emergency. Benjamin Irritant stabs at capitalism with surreal collage and Edwin turns street art on it's head, refusing to beautify thereby pushing against the commercial machine that Public Art has become.
This isn't just decoration chasing likes and pound notes. This is genuine street art. To make the show have some worth beyond just pictures on walls, part of the show will be fund raising for a food bank in the 'Panic Buy'.
BSMT has already raised funds for Extinction Rebellion and continuing in this environmentally sound consciousness, work in the show has been produced using repurposed and upcycled consumer goods and advertising detournement.
'Panicky in the UK' opens at BSMT Urban Art gallery with a private view April 2nd and will run until April 19th.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RFF638 - Here's a little insight into the world of D7606
Picking spots is not always easy, a lot of areas like the east end of London are quite saturated with street art, finding a spot without going over other peoples work and tags is always a priority. Being respectful to others work is very important to me. So I like to find new spots and go into areas where no one has been before, I did a series of Bollywood actors and found myself in a busy Southall one night, that was fun. I have been into the urbex spots around Sheffield where the spray can and letters are king, so adding brightly coloured paste ups to those grimy walls is a risk and one I'm glad I have taken, some will approve and others will not but that's the joy of trying new places.
Mostly I am a lover of other peoples work and my photography of that work is how I find different neighbourhoods. Most areas are well know so often I just wander around taking photos, this then gives me that opportunity to do my own work too. I guess my favourite areas right now are Sheffield in the UK and Kreuzberg in Berlin, the back streets are full of grimy walls and doors, a perfect place for paste ups, stickers and tags..
I love those iconic British symbols, ask an American to name an iconic British symbol and a lot will say our red phone box or post box. They featured in my first work and still do in a big way.
Oh yes, I love to take those iconic British symbols abroad, I have travelled a fair bit in the last year- France, Germany and the USA. Hard to say a favourite place really, all have great art and great spots. Overall New York was the most impressive but maybe that was a size thing? It is massive, so much to see and so much good original work around.
Have you ever got in trouble with the police or other people for putting up your work?
Ha¦ oh no, everything I do is within the law !!! I am sure I have annoyed people with my work, some artists are honest enough to say¦ stop !! That's too much !! or that latest work

The photograph fixes the recorded location at one identifiable stage in its history, providing a reference against which later refurbishment, closure, demolition, conversion, new ownership or altered public use can be assessed, specifically in relation to Physical Graffiti Tea Shop. The view also records themes involving visitor economy, temporary artwork, illustrated hoarding, visitor destination, high-street commerce, art-led regeneration. Associated details include New York St Marks Place, Eastvillage. A second layer of description includes customer service, commercial frontage, restaurant sector, shopping habits, food culture, city-centre economy, commercial streetscape, hospitality trade, catering trade, and local trading. Seen from a 2025-onward perspective, high-street retail also connects with hybrid working, changing footfall and efforts aimed at bringing empty units back into use.

Belfast and Derry contain arguably the most famous political murals in Europe. It is believed that almost 2,000 murals have been documented since the 1970s. In 2014, the book, The Belfast Mural Guide estimated that, in Belfast, there were approximately 300 quality murals on display, with many more in varying degrees of age and decay. Murals commemorate, communicate and display aspects of culture and history. The themes of murals often reflect what is important to a particular community. A mural therefore exists to express an idea or message and could generally be seen as reflecting values held dear to that community.
In Irish republican areas the themes of murals can range from the 1981 Irish hunger strike, with particular emphasis on strike leader Bobby Sands
murals of international solidarity with revolutionary groups are equally common, as are those which highlight a particular issue, for example the Ballymurphy Massacre or the McGurk's Bar bombing. In working class unionist communities, murals are used to promote Ulster loyalist paramilitary groups such as the Ulster Defence Association and Ulster Volunteer Force and commemorate their deceased members. However traditional themes such as William III of England and the Battle of the Boyne, the Battle of the Somme and the 36th Ulster Division are equally common

In Irish republican areas the themes of murals can range from the 1981 Irish hunger strike, with particular emphasis on strike leader Bobby Sands
murals of international solidarity with revolutionary groups are equally common, as are those which highlight a particular issue, for example the Ballymurphy Massacre or the McGurk's Bar bombing. In working class unionist communities, murals are used to promote Ulster loyalist paramilitary groups such as the Ulster Defence Association and Ulster Volunteer Force and commemorate their deceased members.

Sean McGuire (26 December 1927 “ 24 March 2005) was a former All Ireland fiddle champion. He was from Belfast.
McGuire was only fourteen when his violin playing was broadcast for the first time on BBC radio. In 1949 at the age of only twenty-one, he won the Oireachtas (pronounced err-OCTH-us), the All-Ireland musical championship held annually in Dublin) with the only perfect score ever awarded in the long history of the competition. In the 1950s, he became part of a major touring group called the Malachy Sweeney Ceili Band
later he helped form the Sean McGuire Ceili Band and the Four Star Quartet.[1] Through the 1960s he was a leading member of the Gael-Linn Cabaret.
In the days before the Chieftains assumed the role, McGuire sometimes served as Irish musics cultural ambassador. He has appeared throughout Europe, and he has been named Grande Artiste of the Soviet Union. When he toured the US in 1952, he was asked to appear on such classic American variety programs as The Ed Sullivan Show and The Arthur Godfrey Show. He was also honoured by the Wurlitzer Co. of New York City, who not only invited him to play the Stradivarius and Guarnerius violins in their possession, but also to enter his name (alongside those of Fritz Kreisler and Yehudi Menuhin) in their golden book of master violinists.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HDWTJJ - James Connolly (Irish: Séamas Ó Conghaile
5 June 1868 “ 12 May 1916) was an Irish republican and socialist leader, aligned to syndicalism and the Industrial Workers of the World.
He was born in the Cowgate area of Edinburgh, Scotland, to Irish-born parents. He left school for working life at the age of 11, but became one of the leading Marxist theorists of his day. He also took a role in Scottish and American politics. He was executed by a British firing squad because of his leadership role in the Easter Rising of 1916.
in 1910 he was right-hand man to fellow-syndicalist James Larkin in the Irish Transport and General Workers Union. He stood twice for the Wood Quay ward of Dublin Corporation but was unsuccessful. His name, and those of his family, appears in the 1911 Census of Ireland - his occupation is listed as National Organiser Socialist Party
In 1913, in response to the Lockout, he, along with an ex-British officer, Jack White, founded the Irish Citizen Army (ICA), an armed and well-trained body of labour men whose aim was to defend workers and strikers, particularly from the frequent brutality of the Dublin Metropolitan Police. Though they only numbered about 250 at most, their goal soon became the establishment of an independent and socialist Irish nation. He also founded the Irish Labour Party as the political wing of the Irish Trade Union Congress in 1912 and was a member of its National Executive. Around this time he met Winifred Carney in Belfast, who became his secretary and would later accompany him during the Easter Rising.
Connolly was sentenced to death by firing squad for his part in the rising. On 12 May 1916 he was taken by military ambulance to Royal Hospital Kilmainham, across the road from Kilmainham Gaol, and from there taken to the gaol, where he was to be executed. Visited by his wife, and asking about public opinion, he commented, They will all forget that I am an Irishman

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HEEF8N - Murals in Northern Ireland have become symbols of Northern Ireland, depicting the region's past and present political and religious divisions.
Belfast and Derry contain arguably the most famous political murals in Europe. It is believed that almost 2,000 murals have been documented since the 1970s. In 2014, the book, The Belfast Mural Guide estimated that, in Belfast, there were approximately 300 quality murals on display, with many more in varying degrees of age and decay. Murals commemorate, communicate and display aspects of culture and history. The themes of murals often reflect what is important to a particular community. A mural therefore exists to express an idea or message and could generally be seen as reflecting values held dear to that community.
In Irish republican areas the themes of murals can range from the 1981 Irish hunger strike, with particular emphasis on strike leader Bobby Sands
murals of international solidarity with revolutionary groups are equally common, as are those which highlight a particular issue, for example the Ballymurphy Massacre or the McGurk's Bar bombing. In working class unionist communities, murals are used to promote Ulster loyalist paramilitary groups such as the Ulster Defence Association and Ulster Volunteer Force and commemorate their deceased members. However traditional themes such as William III of England and the Battle of the Boyne, the Battle of the Somme and the 36th Ulster Division are equally common
