Robert,
Such decay is a great texture to capture, either in itself, or as a raw material for blending into other compositions.
Here, in Los Angeles, we only see such walls, rarely and most often, in high end Italian restaurants, custom fabricated, by expensive designers, to recreate an atmosphere of an old Tuscan hotel with plaster coming off and revealing ancient Roman brickwork.
Of course, with your striking wall, I realized, if I wanted to get the entire wall I would have to hire workers to move the sign, LOL. I would still need it in the picture, but that wall is so fabulous.
Instead of getting arrested, I’d shuffle, side to side in front of the sign to stitch the whole fabulous geography etched in that wall.
Then I would add back the sign to the left! Yes, I am a cheat and nuts, but used to composing by “re-arranging”, as well as “taking what’s there”, (as you have done), which is already ironic and very well done!
