If it's something like an Arab or African American represented in a weak or vulnerable state, overcoming some challenge like reading ( books scattered throughout mural) I would be severly disappointed- as it has absolutely nothing to do with the history and population of Stamford. If it was Poles and Italians holding hands then it would be appropriate. Otherwise make it as generic as possible because modern muralists can barely paint a human portrait let alone something non abstract (as abstract art gives 'creative freedom' to produce errors) and thus hire unskilled artists or ones who are prone to simple errors with geometry and distance.

It'll probably look like the one at the mall across urby, just random colors painted on the side and then praised for it's magnificence
