Bella Napoli Restaurant

Fragments of a mural remain at the Bella Napoli restaurant 41 - 42 Southside St., The Barbican. Painted in 1969 this varnished, oil on paper mural on the theme of Oliver Twist would have measured approx. 2.2m x 4.0m (including the door to the kitchen placed in the middle).  Two sections remain, the largest features Nancy, the other, Oliver Twist. The missing section was concerned with three street urchins.   Shortly before his death Robert expressed a wish to restore the mural.  Some film footage was taken by regional TV circa 1997.
