A Mural in a Coffee-House

This small, quiet coffeehouse at the bus station in Ilıca, near Çeşme, on the Turkish Aegean...

...hosts one of the strangest-yet-sweetest murals I've seen. The words spell out a popular Turkish idiom: "A cup of coffee has memories for forty years." It is my opinion that no trendy urban-street artists can duplicate the incredible naivety of images like these.
