This is not a painting but rather large paper printouts pasted on the wall of an alley at Ah Quee Street. This Lego mural was originally drawn by Ernest Zacharevic in Johor but due to a controversy surrounding it, the mural was removed by the local authority there. Someone has found a way to replicate the mural here in George Town.
