The lady of the cigarettes of Piazza Bellini

A beautiful mural in the historic center of Naples has been dedicated to Valeria, Giannina, or more commonly known as "the lady of Piazza Bellini".

I don't know who made this mural, but I find it beautiful.
Unlike other posts or cartoons where she was mentioned, Giannina, or Valeria, the one with the cigarettes in Piazza Bellini, just to be clear, here she is portrayed with a lovely smile towards life, the kind that, for a long time now, was no longer seen on her face.
There are people who become part of the fabric of the city, in its interweaving, in its tuff stone.
They are those people who, when you see them, for some reason, make you feel at home. And when they are no longer there, they leave you with a sense of disorientation.
"The lady with the cigarettes in Piazza Bellini" was one of these people.
Thank you for giving Naples yet another of its thousand facets. #heimlich
