Unexpected facade art

Gevelkunst

I catched this today, just opposite the building where I earn my daily bread. Yesterday this facade protection at the corner of Rue des Colonies/Kolonienstraat and Rue de la Chancellerie/Kanselarijstraat was virgin white. Overnight some unknown artist produced this work of art. The photo does not do this any justice, the real experience is overwhelming...

Update: the unknown artist has been identified as street artist BONOM (his initials were just around the corner); see also his flickr group.

How the hell did they get up there to draw this, I wonder? It looks great.
