Artist Lionel Stanhope teamed up with Britain's Network Rail for a mural celebrating the National Health Service showing an iconic image of Superman
The Italian baroque master’s “Supper at Emmaus” is usually available to view at the National Gallery in London, but with that shut, Stanhope’s giant interpretation is now on show in Ladywell, southeast London.
The artist is best known for his giant green and gold place-name murals near railway stations, a trend which in recent years has fostered local pride and provided a backdrop for outdoor food markets. “Christ is wearing a pair of blue gloves, just to make it relevant for today of what we’re all going through,” Stanhope said.
“There’s a lot of street artists doing a lot of NHS work at the moment which is really nice to see,” Stanhope said by phone, adding that the pandemic was giving more meaning to street art.
