"A Couple Hold Hands in the Street" - a photo on Flickriver

            By Stik,
Princelet Street,
Spitalfields,
London.

TAKEN - 12.04p.m. Mon 19th Jly'21

A Couple Hold Hands in the Street, shows a woman in a niqab holding hands with a second stick figure.

Stik executed the work in 2010, days after an attempted attack on a Swedish cartoonist who depicted the Prophet Mohammad as a dog. ‘As a street artist you have to find a way to walk right on the parameters of freedom, and that’s what I was doing here.'

Seven years later, A Couple Hold Hands in the Street  had been embraced by the local Muslim community and become something of a national treasure — in a 2017 Guardian  poll, it was voted the UK’s 17th-favourite artwork.
