Michael Jackson tree etching

A young tree outside the 02 etched with a depiction of Michael Jackson in performance pose, by a fan following his death in June 2009.

 

Public grafitti and tribute to the popular singer Michael Jackson outside the 02 / Millenium Dome in Greenwich, London.

 

Jackson had been due to perform his This Is It concerts at the venue beginning 13 July 2009. I was at the venue on 1 August 2009, what would have been the 9th concert date in the run.

 

Several walls of tribute sprung up following Jackson's death on 25 June 2009. Nowhere was quite as poignant as the venue he was due to play.
