This mural is
painted in the walkway between two buildings in the Village of Claremont,
CA, next to the Claremont Colleges. It depicts architecture from some of
the buildings on the College campuses as a backdrop for the history of the
community.
Originally begun as a citrus-growing community, Claremont
soon became home to the expanding family of Claremont Colleges, and today
this lively community is a beautiful and charming college town.
The
mural depicts a series of historical images arrayed against the backdrop
of the campus architecture.
The view through the arch at the left end
of the mural is of the local train station, itself a historical landmark.
Inside the arch, Art shows himself painting on a canvas depicting the
original train station, built when the town was founded.
