Naked Billy Connolly mural unveiled in iconic Glasgow location

A NEW mural of Billy Connolly has just been completed in an iconic Glasgow location.

The self-initiated work can be found in the city's Nelson Mandela Place.

It is a collaboration between two artists, ConzoGlobel who are Conzo Throb and Ciaran Globel, and is an homage to a John Byrne portrait of the comedian.

It adds to three different Connolly murals already in the city, which were put up in commemoration of his 75th birthday.

We previously reported on how one of them was set to be covered up after proposals to develop student accommodation were given the green light.
