The Fitzrovia Mural

Amber, aka the American Tour Guide in London, used to pass the Fitzrovia Mural everyday without giving it a second thought. Now it is the first stop of her tours of the local area. She introduces us to the history of the fascinating work of art in a public space. Helping her to tell the story are Kristina O’Donnell, a descendant of characters in the mural, and Richard Unwin from Eazl, a creative agency that have been involved in efforts to restore the mural.

This story is part of Camden Tour Guides tales of objects around the borough of Camden.
