Artist Alain Welter decided to devote himself to the history of Herentals for this mural. Because cycling is very popular in this region, he illustrated the legendary cyclists (such as: Rik Van Looy, Wout van Aert and Sanne Cant) and also designed some animal characters to give the design a humorous touch. There is a constant alternation between portraits, urban landscape, botanical elements and typography. In this way different stories can be discovered.
