Here is one more photograph of Lisbon graffiti, this one from a wall next to a sidewalk in the lower Alfama neighborhood. The colors and patterns are so vivid that you might not even notice the doorway in the wall behind the paint. The colors of this street anrt are were perhaps the most intense that I recall seeing.
Sometimes I wonder what people in these neighborhoods think of the graffiti/street art. Some of it is appealing, and I like to think that they enjoy the color it brings to a neighborhood. On the other hand, if someone painted such a thing on the wall of my home or business I might not be so thrilled!
