To most of us graffiti mean just scribblings and scratchings on walls. But people have scribbled since paleolithic times and left, in spite of themselves, an odd record of hopes, and fears, and thoughts; often disreputable, sometimes funny, sometimes tragic. Throughout the graffiti of every age lurks too a strange, compelling, and always untutored art.
