Mural or decoration?

Some people would call this decoration on an H Street NE building a mural, and some wouldn’t. I thought it was interesting, though, so am including it in this gallery.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly unsharp.

The last of fall, posted earlier:

Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max
1/951s f/2.2 at 7.5mm iso20 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

That's a good question - however, it looks more like a decoration. V

Mural or decoration- no matter, it really brightens up the building.

The whole scene is interesting with the different store fronts and materials. It looks like a phoenix. V

I think it's pretty neat looking. I am interested to learn what it is made of. V

I agree with Nirvan, nice shot of this "artwork".

It's difficult to make out the material of the decoration. Not really a mural - perhaps just 'artwork'.

It’s very subdued compared to some murals. I imagine it gets overlooked. Good spotting and photographing it.
