Two of the pylons of the highway, those closest to the road, have been embellished with beautiful murals: a reproduction of Caravaggio's "Judith and Holofernes" with an attached portrait of Caravaggio himself, wrapped 360° on a pylon, and a portrait of the Queen Elizabeth II. An unexpected pleasant encounter in an otherwise uninteresting area. Congratulations to whoever conceived and created these works.
