This picture represents a graffiti made by the famous artist, Banksy in 2003. It is located in Jerusalem and it's called “Flower Thrower”.
I really like this graffiti because it is very symbolical and original due to the fact it shows a man who, instead of throwing a grenade, is launching a bunch of flowers and I find it very beautiful.
Moreover, it shows that instead of always fighting and being violent to each other, people can try to love and be nice to each other.
It’s modern street art because of the way it’s made, in the street and also it’s very entertaining.
Furthermore, I appreciate this work of art because I see a very big contrast between the outfit of the man and what he is holding in his hand, he seems to be dangerous but the truth is that he just wants to make peace.
