Two images of a mural on the Whiterock Road, Belfast, celebrating the Easter Rising. A soldier raises the Irish Tricolour while trampling on a Union Flag on a broken mast. On the right hand side are the Easter lily and halberds/pikes and an assault rifle, indicating the past and present of the 1916 revolt. In the background is a poorly drawn GPO. The original image of the central figure can be seen in this Extramural Activity post.
