An incredible find for me here in Atlanta! This mural is by Peruvian artists, Entes y Pesimo. So different from anything I’ve seen here, obviously. I felt immediately transported back to South America.

ATLANTA, GEORGIA: MARGARET MITCHELL HOUSE “GONE WITH THE WIND”

Margaret Mitchell and her husband lived in a small apartment in this house. This is where she wrote “Gone With the Wind.” She denied its existence twice (long story,) but eventually, as we are well aware, it got published and the rest is history. A fascinating woman to say the least. Read more here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Mitchell

ATLANTA, GEORGIA (DECATUR): AGNES SCOTT COLLEGE CAMPUS

from Wikipedia:

Agnes Scott College (commonly known as Agnes Scott) is a private liberal arts college in downtown Decatur, Georgia.

The college was founded in 1889 as Decatur Female Seminary by Presbyterian minister Frank H. Gaines. In 1890, the name was changed to Agnes Scott Institute to honor the mother of the college’s primary benefactor, Col. George Washington Scott. The name was changed again to Agnes Scott College in 1906, and remains today a women’s college.

On July 27, 1994, the campus was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as part of the South Candler Street-Agnes Scott College Historic District.
