A recent mural by street artist Laika has sparked conversation near the Vatican as it satirically presents Pope Francis in heaven, reviewing a guest list for his funeral. The artwork features notable figures such as US President Donald Trump and Argentine President Javier Milei, both of whom had contentious interactions with the late pontiff. Other attendees include European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Italian politicians Matteo Salvini and Matteo Piantedosi. By portraying Pope Francis's surprised reaction, the mural critiques the authenticity of these leaders' attendance.
Laika's mural near the Vatican humorously depicts Pope Francis observing a guest list for his funeral, drawing attention to world leaders with strained relations with him.
The mural raises questions about the hypocrisy of leaders who previously had tense relations with Pope Francis, particularly in light of their upcoming presence at his funeral.
