Mural of Keith Haring, Street art mural in Amsterdam West, Netherlands.
The 40-foot white line painting on an exterior wall depicts a mythical dog-headed creature with a figure riding on its back.
Keith Haring created this mural in 1986 during his exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum, completing the artwork within just two days.
The mural represents the intersection of street art and institutional recognition, marking Haring's first solo exhibition at a major European museum.
The mural stands on the exterior of a building that now functions as the Markt Kwartier West grocery store and distribution center.
This artwork remained concealed behind weatherboards for nearly thirty years until its rediscovery and restoration in recent years.
