![A night scene, divided in two, horizontally. On top, a modern glass-and-steel building with a distinctive sweeping roof (Reading railway station, Grimshaw architects). Its shape is almost mirrored below by a colourful, extra-large illuminated mural. There are steps to the right of the artwork and an entrance to a pedestrian underpass at its centre. "Rivers, Ruins & Regency" [2024] by Kev Mundy, in collaboration with sculptor Stuart Melrose, is a 51-metre long piece of art, full of references to the people and landmarks of the town.

![An extra-large illuminated mural brings light and colour to the entrance of a pedestrian underpass. In silhouette, a hooded individual with mismatching shoes holds the stainless-steel railing as they descend some steps to the entrance to the tunnel. The 51-metre long artwork outside the Reading railway station is full of references to the people and landmarks of the town (notably in this section is an interpretation of Banksy's "Create Escape" from the wall of Reading Prison).
