Detail of Lady Godiva mural, Fargo Village, Coventry
Detail of a mural featuring Lady Godiva, painted on the outside wall of a building in the Fargo Village market place off Far Gosford Street. The style is unmistakably that of the artist Stewart Francis Easton; it resembles that of his paintings of Fevral the Bear exhibited at the Herbert Museum & Art Gallery in 2018, see here LinkExternal link and here LinkExternal link .

The mural appears to have been painted before the opening of Fargo Village in October 2014; part of it can be seen in this report of the opening by the Coventry Society.
