A fine composition, and an interesting exchange in the comments.
Most interesting.

Hey C. Brown.
Peace Corps...'82-84 give or take. Lived on Johnson Hill down the path from the baptist mission. Taught algebra-chem at Tappita High...for the nat'l exam, fwiw.
Fr. John Thompson, a lively good man led St. Francis church and clinic during my time.
This was on a Lebanese shop wall, on the main street that led to St. Francis, but close to the taxi station.
Would enjoy seeing your photos........please let me know when you post them.

When and how were you in Tappita? I was there from 12-77 through 12/79. Peace Corps, St.Francis School. I have slides and pictures of Tappita and Nimba County and was thinking of putting them up at PBase. Did a search, and here's your photo. Tappita was a dangerous setting to Graham Greene, to me... perhaps to you. The philosophy of the mural, and your composition, is apt to the spirit of the place. C.Brown.
