RE: Street Art - London (Bermondsey)
Mother Earth? Not Christian. Yes, it is beautiful. Your photographs refresh me, @limma.

Thank you. Maybe Mother Earth. There is also the eternity mark on her, sometimes you can find it on Tarot cards.. not sure.
bingo. I think it is indeed a reference to the Tarot Card The Magician. I've elaborated on it in my other reply.
Yeah, I noticed that, too, and there are other features that appear to be cult-specific symbols. I don't think that it is just Mother Earth. I think that it is an expression of some belief system. What subcultures are present in that neighborhood? How old did the paint look; was it painted recently?
Yes it was painted recently. I don't know about Bermondsey that much. I guess it's best that I will try to find out who is the artist.
If the work is signed, perhaps the signature will be legible enough that you can search the Internet. I'm interested, because I expect that there is a lot of symbolism. It would also be interesting if you could get some close up photos of the detail on the crown as well as any other detail that might be symbolic.
Yes, will do it next time I'll pass by.
