‘That’s a Bansky,’ I said.
‘Nah’ said Ann and Michael. ‘Can’t be…’
‘I think it is,’ I said.

Then we noticed there was perspex protecting the piece. Which is kinda ironic, given the message – ‘IF GRAFFITI CHANGED ANYTHING -IT WOULD BE ILLEGAL’. The image – which apparently appeared in Fitzrovia in 2011– has attracted further graffiti, including the badly placed ‘VERY.’ and a sarcastic exchange about said perspex.
The selection of spectacular street art below is stuff we came across in Spitalfields, well worth clicking on to get bigger images.
