 Robin Paul Memorial Mural 
by Allan B. Hall

​Art & Soul Productions has recently become involved in the documentation
and restoration of this beautiful mural by 
Allan B. Hall​. ​
​
​
Located inside the Yorba Linda Public Library Community Room,
the mural portrays the heritage and future of Yorba Linda.
The mural was created in memory of Robin Paul,
a little girl killed by a car while riding her bike,
in August of 1958. 
For more information on the current status of this restoration project and to learn more about the history of the mural go to
the "Save the Mural Coalition" website.

In 1959, Allan Hall, a founder of the Orange County Art Association and alumnus of Chouinard Institute of Art and USC Fine Arts, was commissioned to paint the mural in the then-new Yorba Linda Public Library.
Events depicted include the Gaspar de Portolà Expedition, the first recorded European exploration of the interior of present-day California, including José Antonio Yorba, a member of the expedition. Yorba received a land grant comprising much of today’s Orange County from the Spanish Crown in recognition for his contributions. His son, Bernardo Yorba (after whom Yorba Linda is named) is also included in the mural, as is Father Junípero Serra, the founder of nine of California’s missions. The White House appears as an acknowledgment to then-Vice President Richard Nixon, who was born in Yorba Linda. Children of indigenous people, Mexican, and modern-day US heritage stand before a sapling tree with a single leaf denoting potential for growth.
