    Are there any surviving hi-res pictures of this mural before it was defaced? I want to turn it into my wallpaper and feed this Streisand effect.

      This was the best I could find:

      1486x1115

      If anyone has a better version I’d love to get it!

      Edit: This one crops nicely (just above supermans head and to the bottom of his left fist) and looks good enough on my 3440x1440 monitor, FWIW. I’ll see how it looks on a 16:9 later, but I think the crop there will go to the outside arms, so also good!

        I think the post image has a tighter vertical crop, but a higher resolution than this one.

          I’m going to need to check from my desktop, I got a thumbnail version on mobile (and I’m lazy and just save to my nas from mobile)

          Edit: Looking at it on the desktop, its a few.pixels taller and about 200 wider, but no change to the contents. I’m assuming the preview in the post was a stretch for lens correction or something, the one I found was an iPhone photo

          The picture is the non-defaced one, the ruined one is behind the insta link, looks like someone has blacked out superman, but I can’t see the whole thing since I don’t want to sell my soul to meta
