Doña Mago Mexican Restaurant Mural, 301 South Van Ness Avenue, San Francisco, California
|
The mural (artist unknown) was painted to the left of the entrance to Doña Mago Mexican Restaurant. It depicted
a rural scene in Mexico.
|
The sign for "Doña Mago Mexican Restaurant" was over the doorway.
|
Upon casual glance, the mural seemed simple. But by pausing to gaze closely at it, it turned out to actually
be complex.
|
A man playing a guitar serenaded a couple dining together at a table.
|
A man carried a load on the back of his burro, as they walked the lonely road home. Note that the mountains were
painted over a window.
|
Two men stuffed their faces with food as a waitress carried more food to their table.
|
Only the women prepared food. One woman slaved over a hot stove. Another rolled tortillas from stiff dough. A third
arranged food on a plate.
|
One woman cared for a baby, while another carried a tray of food almost out of the mural and onto the sidewalk.
|
Graffiti was drawn on the side of one of the church buildings. A young girl appeared to worship the graffiti.
