By the petrol station, there are pedestrian lights. Cross the street over to Vesturgata. At the crossroads of Seljavegur and Vesturgata, you will find a mural by artist Guido Van Helten. The picture is of the grandfather of the owner of the house. There used to be two other artworks by him, where the Herakut artwork is now, and the hotel is being enlarged. However, the building it was on has been torn down to make way for the hotel.

Van Helten is an Australian-born visual artist and photographer. He has a bachelor’s degree in Visual Arts, majoring in Printmaking. He is now closely aligned with the movement of large-scale muralism across the world.
