Washing a Leicester wall with a mural of one Claudio Ranieri, artist Richard Wilson has added extra celebration to the streets. An iconic portrait that captures the emotion of Leicester's emphatic title win, the progression is a masterpiece as much as the finished piece.
Bottled emotions, this piece has gone around the world and back and rightly so. It's an inspired painting that has sprayed the successes of Leicester across 50 metres that will stand as a proud display for the incredible achievement of the club this season.
The delivery is so fine in it's detail, the flag waves in glory while Ranieri looks on out into a city that will have well and truly adopted him as one of their own. A footballing achievement that stands out like no other, the thought that Leicester have won the greatest league in the world with two games to spare is something still settling in. A story in his own right, Richard is a van driver by day and with his talents clear to see, surely it's only a matter of time before the commissions come forth.
While the paint dries the people flock in, it's right we all celebrate the Leicester party as fans from all over - an incredible story that sizes up against the very best of them. Topping the table in every sense, go on Leicester. Painting the town in the purest sense. You can see more of Richard Wilson's work here.
