    Man, that would be absolutely awesome to see in person. It's been painted so much in detail that that you can actually recognise some of the faces in there.

    7.2 m x 2.8m, that is huge.... well it has his little price ticket € 2.5 mil....
    Even if someone would buy it, it would be troublesome to transport it:whistling:
    The painter still did a great job painting it, I wouldn't want to stare at those faces.....painting those persons must a taken a awfull lots of time....-unsure
