This is banksy: the mystery. A quiet monday morning in london in the summer of 2024, and there it appeared a stencilled mountain goat precariously perched on a ledge in richmond, west london. In quick succession, more artworks appeared. Monkeys hanging from a railway bridge. Two elephants lovingly reaching for each other s long trunks from opposite windows. Again, banksy had managed to get all of us talking and wondering what this new animal trail across london was all about. What s the message behind these new pieces? i own the canvas of this. This isjust a poster from when it was in the museum, in moco in amsterdam. Well, john brandler knows a thing or two about banksy. Oh, i think the animal trail is very clever. The police booth in london looking like a fish tank phenomenal, brilliant.
