BBCTwo giant murals of football legend Denis Law have been painted on a high-rise block in his home city of Aberdeen.
He was born and raised in the Granite City and played most of his career for Manchester United.
Law – whose 30 goals for Scotland made him his country’s joint top scorer – died on 17 January at the age of 84.
Artist Jerome Davenport worked on the tribute project in the Printfield area of Aberdeen. One image shows Law playing for Scotland, the other while he was with United.
PA MediaJerome – the founder of street art creators Blank Walls – hopes the new high-rise mural artwork is a fitting tribute to the football great.
Nicknamed “The Lawman”, the footballer spent 11 years at Old Trafford with Manchester United.
Law’s 237 goals in 404 appearances placed him third in United’s history behind Wayne Rooney and Bobby Charlton.
He was capped 55 times for his country.
His 30 goals made him Scotland’s joint top scorer of all time alongside Kenny Dalglish.
In 2021, he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia.
After his death, his family said he fought a “tough battle” but was finally now at peace.
