More information about Rory Gallagher you can find here in Wikipedia: Rory Gallagher Wikipedia
It states;
William Rory Gallagher 2 March 1948 – 14 June 1995) was an Irish guitarist, singer and songwriter. He is known for his virtuosic style of guitar playing, and is often referred to as "the greatest guitarist you've never heard of".
A number other guitarists, including Alex Lifeson of Rush, Brian May of Queen, and Eric Clapton, have cited Gallagher as an influence.
If you don’t know him… read up a bit more in above’s website or his own website here: Rory Gallagher
Let me show you a bit more of this work 😎
Close by capture… as you can see the blacks are not black here as the light was wrong…
So I decided to go further away until the black and white mural could be captured better.
Signature of the artist and the tribute to Rory and mention of the photographer the artist used a photo from for his work.
An artistic capture of this work 😎
A little bit later coming from our walk back… even more cars gathered… 🚗🚗 one still does see this mural / StreetArt popping out.
I love #blackandwhite works like this as they pop… even on cloudy days in Ireland 🇮🇪
When we walked through the center of this town we found a #statue from #rorygallagher
It is located on Main Street in Ballyshannon 🎸🎸🎸
Very cool 😎 don’t you think.
