PEACE GUARD LISBON
Shepard Fairey’s Peace Guard Lisbon mural is a faded, but still striking, piece.
Fairey’s subject holds a gun with a flower in it, a symbolic reference to the Carnation Revolution in Portugal.
Named for the demonstrators who placed
carnations in the muzzles of guns and on the soldiers' uniforms, the 1974
military coup and civil resistance campaign transitioned the country from a
dictatorship to a democracy.
