1969 Belfast Chalk Falls Graffiti Graffitti Grafitti Tall Thin Urchin Urchins
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time during the tumultuous year of 1969 in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The image, taken in the Falls Road area, depicts a tall, thin man in a heavy coat and flat cap, intently examining the graffiti-covered wall alongside him. Three boys, dressed in ragged clothes and peering curiously over his shoulder, seem to be following his every move. The wall, adorned with chalked messages and crude drawings, serves as a backdrop to the scene, reflecting the raw energy and defiance of the community during those troubled times. The boys, with their unkempt hair and bare feet, embody the spirit of the urban urchins that roamed the streets of Belfast in the late 1960s. The photograph, a poignant reminder of a bygone era, transports us back to a time of political unrest and social upheaval in Northern Ireland.
