One a Day from Toronto: Surprise mural

Surprise mural

I found these murals inside the ladies washroom at the Royal Botanical Gardens.

What a great way to decorate a normally a rather boring place! If you like murals, check out Monday Murals to see more.

Lowell said...: I have to say that out of all the ladies' restrooms I have entered inadvertently, I've never seen anything like this.

The murals are rather nice. But shouldn't they be facing the other way so one could commune with nature while taking care of what nature demands?

Just asking...; 11 June, 2012 08:27
Halcyon said...: There were also "murals" on the insides of the stalls. But they were impossible to photograph. :); 11 June, 2012 08:34

VioletSky said...: considering how quiet the place was, I wonder why we didn't just check out the men's - one of us could have stood guard :); 11 June, 2012 11:24
RedPat said...: Very nice and so suitable to the gardens.; 11 June, 2012 12:29
ArtandArchitecture-SF.com said...: Love these - keep wondering if it they are the same in both bathrooms so you don't have men walking into the women's and visa versa; 11 June, 2012 13:17
VP said...: This is an amazing decoration, but I think it is a stretch to call this a mural...; 11 June, 2012 14:57

Jack said...: Come to think of it, there are murals on the doors of many of the stalls I have visited, too. Though usually they involve phone numbers and anatomical drawings.; 11 June, 2012 22:43
Oakland Daily Photo said...: Never lose an opportunity to continue to teach the public. Even if it means illustrating bathroom stall doors. Decorative and instructive. Can't beat that. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.; 11 June, 2012 23:57
Dyanna said...: 1. These are beautiful
2. Have you ever seen a nicer bathroom?
3. I wonder if people ever just come to see the bathrooms?
4. What was on the doors in the men's room?; 12 June, 2012 00:01
Halcyon said...: @Dyanna - I didn't have man with me to take a look at the men's side. But I am guessing they must have something similar.; 12 June, 2012 08:57
Gunn said...: Unique doors!
I like it too.; 14 June, 2012 01:04

I hate the new word verification. Since I have trouble reading those "words", I am assuming others do too.
