Check out this stunning mural created in Rio de Janeiro

Magnificent!

This mural is thought to be the largest art mural created by a single person in the world and it is proudly on display at Rio de Janeiro’s Boulevard Olimpico where the 2016 Olympic games are being held.

The mural is 3,000 square meters and was created by street artist Eduardo Kobra.

The beautiful piece of artwork which was officially unveiled to the public on July 30 was commissioned by the International Olympic Committee, the Brazilian Olympic Committee and Rio’s City Hall.

The work, which is entitled ‘Etnias’ (ethnicities in Portuguese) took 40 days to create and displays five native people from the five continents of the world.
