Underground murals, Tottenham Court Road Tube (1980-86) a while ago

Description:
Now these are just incredible. If you’ve never stopped to take note of the thousand square metres of mosaic, do so! Saxophones, weird machines (as always), bulls and chickens with cogs, and pure, sheer randomness. You can even pick out the Hubble Space Telescope amongst the tesserae. An impressive inclusion, given that the murals were completed four years before the launch of that magnificent machine. This is the Pimlico panels all over again, only on a much grander scale, in full colour and to the accompaniment of a lacklustre sax solo further down the corridor.
