The mural depicts a giraffe nibbling on the leaves of an acacia tree, with the sun setting over the savannah in the distance. Postal letters bearing the wishes of local residents flutter around another giraffe; they come from the trunk of the first acacia tree, on which a nameplate indicates the title of the mural: "de Wensboom" (the wishing tree).
The mural is on the side wall of a block of flats, at the junction of Drapeniersgaarde and Vrederustlaan.
I've been hunting street art for 7 years purely for the joy of photography. Most of my photos are taken in The Hague (Netherlands) and Nice (France) but wherever I come across a nice street art mural, I add it in my personal collection. However, taking pictures only makes sense if one can share them...So I'm glad to be now a hunter of the Street Art Cities community !
