Wow

This is quite something.

With only days to go until Irish people go to the polls to vote on the Marriage Referendum, a huge mural supporting same sex marriage has been unveiled on a castle in county Galway.

The mural, which is similar to the one that recently appeared on George’s Street in Dublin and is the work of the same artist, Joe Caslin, surfaced on Caherkinmonwee Castle in Craughwell, a short spin from Galway city.

Caslin revealed on Instagram recently that he would be unvileing another mural on a major landmark west of the Shannon and offered this sneak preview.

It really is quite something and fingers crossed that, until Friday at least, it avoids the same fate as its predecessor in George’s Street, which fell victim to some adverse weather conditions shortly after it went up.
