Whilst visiting my granddad in central London last week for the day, I noticed some interesting graffiti on the corner of the road he lives on - something I had definitely noticed in the media before. It was an authentic Banksy piece! On the corner of Cleveland Street in Westminster, stands the art work, which appeared during 2011 on Easter Monday. Now protected by a plastic sheet to preserve the art work, the wall is often photographed by passers by like myself, as it is so detailed and very impressive! I was however disappointed to see that some people had tried to ruin the work, despite the efforts to protect it, and graffiti over the top. This is my first live Banksy piece I have seen, and I'm definitely going to be look out for more, as the pictures really doesn't do the art work any justice!
