Irish artist Conor Harrington painted The Duel of Belfast, Dance by Candlelight on a Hill St gable wall as part of the 2012 Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival. The piece is open to interpretation, but the artist has described it as a comment on colonialism. It depicts two historical figures fighting over a dead animal, while a third man looks on.
