Titled System of a Fraud, the artist writes on his Flickr page that the piece represents the two sides of the corrupted contemporary Greek system collapsing. The new mural is a portrait of Solon, an Ancient Greek lawmaker and the founder of Athenian Democracy. Solon is remembered for his efforts to legislate against political, economic, and moral decline in ancient Athens.
Pretty impresive mural.
