By SMUG in Glasgow, Scotland. Photos by Gordon Terris.
Glasgow’s latest mural by the artist Sam Bates, aka Smug, in collaboration with the Govan Housing Association in honour of its 50th anniversary, inspired by the Govan-born ‘Daffodil King’, Peter Barr. Barr is credited with bringing the daffodil back into fashion in the late 1800s, and the Memorial Cup is given out each year to those who follow in his footsteps and advance the standing of daffodils.
