Maxfield Bala’s mission working in Umbrella Alley in San Francisco was to paint a large scale Greetings From San Francisco Mural in the style of “Greeting From” poscards from the 40’s and 50’s.

The mural features the cities most notable iconography including the Golden Gate Bridge, City Hall, Coit Tower, Bay Bridge, Alcatraz, Ferry Building, Cable Car, Painted Ladies, Lombard Street,  and The Palace of Fine Arts among many others.  The mural measures 13′ tall by 18′ wide.
