I don’t know, but it feels like this might have been created, or at least posted, by the same folks who did the illustration of Betty Boop on the laundromat wall that I posted some time ago. This was just off Chicago’s commercial Magnificent Mile strip, on a wall of a grimy area on E. Grand Ave., and was one of two things that made that area just a little better, the other being an upscale donut shop.
The image seems — this is a best guess but I’m comfortable with it – to be a portrait of a local musician and producer. The city of Chicago painted over it a couple of months later, just slapped a muddy brown rectangle of dark brown over it, because Chicago hates too many nice things.
