At first glance, it is difficult to believe that this 3D image is actually a mural in Poland.

The dizzying detail creates the illusion of an interconnected [row of houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/regensburg-quarter) or an architecturally complex structure. A closer look however, reveals that this detailed mural is simply painted on the facade of a building. The multi-colored display is meant to pay tribute to a [market that previously inhabited this area](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mercado-nicols-bravo). In fact, the entire district used to be filled with markets, and this mural attempts to bring the area's storied past to life.

When studying the mural, a number of historical features are highlighted by the piece. Some of these include a painting of a street-performing trumpet player, a knight on a horse, and a cartoon butcher welcoming you to his shop.
