well a long bit actually at 262 ft long or 80 meters if you prefer,
160 years
ago the Kingdom of Prussia and the Tokugawa Shogunate signed the Treaty of
Amity, Commerce and Navigation, which today is largely considered the starting
point of German-Japanese diplomatic relations. In tribute to these
long-standing ties, the mural has been created along the exterior wall of
the German Embassy
in Tokyo,
the
monumental mural, which was curated by TokyoDex and created by the Osaka-based Japanese
artist duo WHOLE9, features portraits of pioneers and events which
have shaped the long history of relations between the two nations, what a neat piece of street art.
