Man Standing Atop Truck Trailer with Big Cat Mural
| View of a man in a red jacket holding paint brushes and a palette while standing atop a truck trailer. The side of the trailer is painted with a mural of four endangered large cat species with "Save our cats" written above it. The animals depicted are possibly a lion, tiger, lynx, and puma. The front of the trailer reads, "West Town Community Youth Art Center" in large yellow and green letters. The man on top of the trailer is Ricardo Alonzo, muralist and director of Chicago's West Town Community Youth Art Center. The trailer is pulled by a white International Harvester F-2010A truck. The door of the truck reads, "Operated by March Tranport Co., 3401 W. Pershing Rd., Chicago Ill." In the background is the Willis Tower (formerly named and still commonly referred to as Sears Tower). |
