From the DC Post website: “This bright, mythological piece right in the heart of DC’s Bloomingdale was created by artists Jeff Huntington and Juan Pineda during the 2019 Art All Night DC. The artwork shows the aged, Roman god of the sea looking down at pedestrians against an eye-popping backdrop of colorful blocks.”

Finding new murals to photograph requires a lot of research, since we’ve already seen the most well-known ones here. Still, I keep coming up with lists of possibilities, and Tim is a good sport to drive me all over the city in search of them. (Better to face the soaring temperatures in an air-conditioned car than walking around a park with lotuses and water lilies in the overwhelming heat and humidity, which is what I really wanted to do!) The photo safari was discouraging in the beginning since we finally concluded that a series of murals on a restaurant had been replaced by windows, but after that disappointment we did manage to find some new ones for this gallery.

In an example of how frustrating the search can be, I identified a fantastic DC statehood mural on a garage featuring “Ratzilla,” but after spending hours trying to pinpoint the location online, I simply didn't know where it was, meaning we’d have to drive through all the alleys in the large Adams Morgan neighborhood to find it (an impossible undertaking). Luckily I went back to a tweet about the mural from a year and a half ago, read through all the comments and came up with a general description of its location.

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