Mural painting is a decorative art on the walls of the building in order to convey messages to the society. The purpose of this study is to emphasize the sequence of mural paintings, in particular those related to elements in the design and types of murals corresponding to previous ones, and also to explore the background of murals based on previous mural paintings, originating with prehistoric cave paintings. Thus, understanding, recognizing and learning the context of past mural paintings can be as valuable as the present-day society. Moreover, the previous mural painting may be a perfect example and an inspiration for local artists to improve their ideas in terms of the style of application of the elements and the concept of mural painting. Thus, these mural paintings can be designed in a constructive manner and may provide both the artists and the universal society a strong and inspiring aesthetic value.
