This mural can be seen in the heart of Riga, painted on a side wall of a building. At first sight it looks abstract, but a deeper observation reveals a theme: the eternal human dream of flying. There are wings, not from a bird but from the earlier times of aviation. And there is a group of men, dressing like they used to dress in those days, watching the efforts of the one trying to make some use of the wings. There is also a tail.

The mural is signed by "Kads". No date.
