Tova Snyder - Murals



Mural in the Bronx, N.Y.C.

 

This mural in the Bronx, N.Y., sponsored by Sparrow Construction Company
in 1992, was one of my favorite public commissions.
Six stories high and 28 feet wide, it is across the street from an elementary school.
The mural can be found at the intersection of Marcy Place and Sheridan Avenue, one block east of the Grand Concourse, and one block south from 170th St..
The surrounding community garden was designed by the N.Y. Botanical
Gardens. I designed this mural to add brightness to the neighborhood.

Mural in the Museo del Artigianato, Pigna(IM), Italy


 

In 1995 I was asked by the admistrators of Pigna(IM), Italy, the village where I have a home and studio, to paint a mural on one of the walls of their local museum of rural culture.
The mural tells the story of the cultivation of wheat, which is a somewhat challenging enterprise in the mountainous terrain surrounding the village.
Included in the mural are the 'Church of Miracles', and Mount Toraggio, the southernmost high peak of the Maritime Alps.
The museum is located in Piazza XX Settembre.
