Nicolaiano street mural by OZMO, one of the most famous graffiti artists in Europe. The mural, part of the city's "Fresh Flâneurs" project, is located on the Via Quintino Sella. The three images invite passersby to identify with at least one of the images of San Nicola. The department of architectural and landscape cultural heritage requested the removal of the mural. The mayor of Bari has defended the street art, stating it is of value to the city of Bari. Photo: Sergio Canniello, Fotocommunity.it, used by permission
