In pictures: Manchester bee mural tribute to arena victims
A mural of the 22 worker bee adorns the side of a building in the heart of the Northern Quarter in Manchester, England.
A mural of the worker bee, by artist Russell Meeham, also know as Qubek, adorns the side of a building in Manchester’s northern quarter on July 3, 2017 in Manchester, England. The Manchester worker bee has become a symbol of solidarity following the Manchester Arena suicide attack on May 22, 2017. The symbol has been part of the city’s identity since the 1800’s when its textile mills were described as ‘hives of activity’ and the workers inside them compared to bees. (Getty Images)
