Banksy Reveals Third New Mural in Three Days: A Work Featuring Three Monkeys in London

A fresh Banksy mural has appeared in London, making it the third new work that the elusive street artist has unveiled in three days.

The artwork depicts three monkeys swinging on the bridge of a subway station in the eastern part of the city. According to BBC News, the latest work is on a bridge over Brick Lane, not far from Shoreditch High Street. It was confirmed through a post on Banksy’s Instagram account on August 7.

The work is the third featuring animals to show up in London this week. One depicts a black mountain goat perched on a wall support structure that faces a surveillance camera near London’s Kew Bridge; the other shows two elephants facing each other, and was painted on two blocked-out windows in Chelsea.

The artist’s posts about the three murals have not included captions or titles, prompting speculation online about what the artist is intending to convey.

In addition to immediate attention from fans, the three new works in London will likely require additional protection. A Banksy painting in the northern part of the city depicting a life-size woman holding a pressure washer was defaced with white paint shortly after its debut in March. The owner of the residential building later installed plastic sheets and wooden boards.
