About two years ago, the mural started to deteriorate and large pieces began to fall off. I had hoped it would be restored, as it was a very beautiful painting with charming scenes from Utrecht.
In June 2025 it became clear why the mural was not being repaired: construction of apartment buildings had started directly in front of it. The photo was taken in October 2025. As a result, the mural is no longer in good condition and is now almost completely out of sight.
