Here's a look at the final RBG mural on 1st Avenue and 11th Street

After nearly two weeks of work, @ellestreetart has finished the RBG mural on the southwest corner of First Avenue and 11th Street (first reported here).

Vinny & O shared the top photo... and Elle posed for a few photos afterwards (thanks Lola Saénz for these photos) ... 
The artist wrote a statement on Instagram explaining all the elements of the mural of the late associate justice of the Supreme Court. 

Earlier this month, workers removed Shepard Fairey's "Rise Above" mural that had been on this space for the past four years.

    Fantastic artwork, hope more come to our neighborhood to view and take pictures. I wonder if we can hire her to go across the street and paint over the MJ mural with a classic LOU REED or RAMONES.. ( yes I know I'm dreaming here people)

    Elle has painted a mural called "Gender Equality", North of NYC, in the City of New Rochelle, Westchester County, about 45 minutes away from Manhattan.
