When I contacted the artists with my usual questions for the mural of a boy with can on a string playing at telephone that I posted February 12th, they told me there was a matching mural with a girl on the other end of the string telephone. I'm back in Los Angeles, but my nephew lives there and was kind enough to get these photos for me.

"Schöne Aussichten (Beautiful views) by German artist Klaus Klinger @klaus.klinger1 and Mexican artist Julieta del Carmen León at Zonser Straße 1, 40223 Düsseldorf, Germany in August 2009 for farbieber.de. Photos taken July 2025.
⠀⠀⠀
"Currently, one in five children in our wealthy country lives in poverty; in Düsseldorf alone, that's 15,000 children, and none of the politicians are seriously considering changing this. In fact, poverty is likely to increase, both here and worldwide. As always, the children are the ones who suffer. Poverty, coupled with a widely acknowledged unjust education system, contributes to their downward mobility. It's a scandal that receives far too little public attention. The mural is already generating discussion, which is exactly the intention. The mural was kindly provided and financed by the homeowner, Mr. Spies." http://farbfieber.de/SES60927171/lang1/doc303A.html

Klaus Allofs by German artist Ami One aka Damian Bautsch @original.ami at Cranachstr. 52, 40235 Düsseldorf, Germany
⠀⠀⠀
"It was a big day for Klaus Allofs when he scored 3 goals against Holland at the European Championship 1980. Not only as a memory of this day, this mural was created in honor of Mr. Allofs.
It also makes sense for the great career of a real Düsseldorf Fortunen...
My largest portrait by far!" @original.ami June 5, 2024
⠀⠀⠀
"German former soccer player and former soccer manager of Fortuna Düsseldorf". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klaus_Allofs
⠀⠀⠀
"Because of the European Football Championship in 2024 Düsseldorf commissioned 5 artists to create a mural on the football topic. All artists live in the EU, some already did a mural in Düsseldorf or it is their first one. According to the motto "Everybody´s Heimspiel“ (Everybody's Homegame) these artworks belong to the serie XXL-Graffiti and we can not thank enough the responsible people of the city administration and Pretty Portal Gallery. This gallery is the leading one for Street Art in Düsseldorf" @streetarcities

"The two guys from @instubuku have used the wall to represent themselves in a depressing situation." @40gradurbanart Jan 14, 2020

'We are Tubuku – Jaroslaw “Jarek” Masztalerz and Alex Weigandt, an artist duo from Krefeld, Germany. ... Born in Poland and Kazakhstan, and raised in Monheim, we realized early on: either we disappear into the gray mass – or we bring color to the world. We chose color.'

"2020 is a tough nut to crack!“ This is my official COVID-19 Painting - including masks, toilet paper, disinfectant, human beings, animals and nature. Done for @40gradurbanart in #Düsseldorf as colorful as possible to underline the scope of pandemic effects worldwide. Hope you like it. Hope it lasts a while to be a contemporary testimony to speak pathetic." @bona_berlin Aug 23, 2020

Eduardo Paolozzi by Scottish artist Halla Groves-Raines @hallagr at 68 Henderson Street, South Leith, Edinburgh in September 2024. Photos taken May 2025.
⠀⠀⠀
'Leith-born Eduardo Paolozzi (1924-2005) is widely considered to be one of Scotland's greatest artists. He was a pioneer of what become known as the pop art movement and well known for his sculpture and graphic works, which attracted international acclaim.

Throughout his long career, numerous large-scale commissions saw his work transform public spaces, including the London Underground, while his sculptures continue to take pride of place in Edinburgh at the National Galleries of Scotland Modern One and at Picardy Place.

Every day thousands pass the 'Manuscript of Monte Cassino' - a large bronze hand, foot and ankle symbolising the destruction of war.

This striking new artwork, which was commissioned and sponsored by Friends of the Water of Leith Basins (FoWLB), Leith Late, and Gras Ltd, has been painted by Halla Groves-Raines - an Edinburgh-born artist and graduate of Glasgow School of Art. It replaces the 2014 black-and-white mural showing Paolozzi as a young man, which had to be removed because of weathering and deterioration.

2024 marked 100 years since Paolozzi's birth in 1924, so it was an appropriate time to refresh and reinstall the mural. Halla says: 'The mural will remain a portrait of Eduardo Paolozzi, this time as an older man, with some recognisable Leith landmarks in the background being treated in the pop art style, based on Paolozzi's own work'.'
