[This] mural was installed within Coventry Peace Orchard in Coundon Hall Park; an important symbol of the city’s role as a place of peace and reconciliation and was a dream of local D-Day veteran, Dennis Davison, who fought in the Second World War.
To bring old and new together, the mural was commissioned to be displayed on the side of a graffiti covered wall- designed and painted by local artist Katie O’Sullivan with the stunning work bringing together important elements of Coventry, consisting of soldiers silhouettes, apples, butterflies, a peace dove, and scenes of wildlife, all of which took inspiration from ideas of schoolchildren from a local school.
