There's a little mistake on a larger-than-life likeness of a certain famous Saint Johner hanging on Prince William Street.
The
recently-unveiled portrait of silver screen star Donald Sutherland on
Prince William Street tacks an extra year on to the 78 year old's age,
pegging him as born in 1934 rather than the correct 1935.

Restaurant owner Holly Singh commissioned the mural. She wasn't aware of
the discrepancy until CHSJ News drew it to her attention. She says it
won't be a hard fix for Grand Manan artist Sarah Griffin.
There's
talk of donating the old murals--which are a little worse-for-wear
after hanging on the building since 1990--to Saint John High School.
