Murals have been around for centuries, the technique of using murals dates all the way back to prehistoric cave paintings such as those in the south of France, the ancient Egyptians painting murals on tomb walls and even the ancient Greeks made regular use of frescos and other murals. In recent times murals are mainly appearing in domestic interiors such as homes using wallpaper murals and in public buildings.
