Prince Charles



This was seen on a wall on Park Street in Hartford.  I googled Prince Charles Burger King and found that the image is by someone called Dolk.  How it ended up on this wall is one of the mysteries of life that I didn't spend the time to unravel . . .

This post is linked to Monday Murals.

    I think this is sort of humorous. Sort of not humorous. Prince Charles is not Prince Charming but I don't think he deserves to be mocked in such a way. Are you sure the image is not the responsibility of Dork?

    Re your comment on Ocala: It's very hairy living here in central Florida!

    Very nice catch Jack! Don't know about the real man, but Dork certainly captured Charles' reputation well.

    Yes, Jack ! Sorry, i removed my earlier comment! It seems that everyone thinks of it as a joke and freedom of expression! Maybe it is! Have a nice weekend, Jack!

    That's pretty snarky! I sort of like ol Charles though..he has a good sense of humor.

    The intent of some murals is lost on me, and I would classify this one in that category.

    How funny I'm sitting here watching Prince Charles doing a tribute to his mum, really enjoying it too. He's lovely.

    I like the passerby looking at the images. I would have done a couple take too looking at those rather odd pics of the prince.

    Strange, but funny mural, Jack.
    Place that person in the foreground is brilliant.

    Not exactly kind but pretty funny. He seems to have evolved over time into being a more sympathetic person. I imagine this is a partisan comment on how long he's had to wait to become king.
