The Book of Disquiet

The photo was taken in Lisbon, Portugal, of street art by KUSCA. The wall art is an interpretation of a well known photograph of Fernando Pessoa, who is perhaps Portugal's best known author. Though Pessoa died in 1935, his "Book of Disquiet" was not published until 1982, 47 years after his passing. The addition of 3D glasses reminded me of an old cover of The National Lampoon that showed Stevie Wonder wearing the same cheap movie theater eyewear.
