The mural of depopulation

Curiosity · Piñel de Arriba, Campo de Peñafiel, Valladolid

Image of Piñel de Arriba, not of the place itself.

In 2008 the residents painted a mural that makes irony of the emptying of the village: from several hundred inhabitants in the middle of the nineteenth century it has gone to little more than eighty in a municipal district of 23 square kilometres.
