Renowned street artist Banksy has struck again, this time transforming a City of London Police sentry box into a stunning aquarium scene. The detailed painting of swimming fish on Ludgate Hill near The Old Bailey and St Paul’s Cathedral is his seventh new artwork to be revealed in the capital in just as many days.
The elusive artist’s latest creation has captured the attention of passersby and art enthusiasts alike. One local resident described the design as “rather beautiful in the sun,” while three fans from the West Midlands traveled to London specifically to see Banksy’s latest works.
However, not all of Banksy’s recent pieces have been met with praise. His sixth work, a stretching cat on an advertising billboard in Cricklewood, was removed by contractors just hours after it was unveiled. Crowds gathered to see the piece before it was dismantled, with some expressing disappointment at its removal.
Despite the mixed reactions, Banksy’s surprise art series continues to captivate audiences across London. From stencilled silhouettes of animals to detailed paintings, each new artwork adds to the intrigue surrounding the mysterious artist. With his latest creation on Ludgate Hill, Banksy once again proves his ability to surprise and delight with his unique brand of street art.
