These days, it feels as though no sooner than a new Banksy appears it is stolen by some idiots with terrible critical thinking skills and very little foresight.
Just as his anti-war artwork on a south London stop sign was stolen in 2023, a new piece, which shows a wolf howling on a satellite dish, was stolen from Peckham within hours of it appearing. This wolf was the fourth in a series of recent works, conveniently cropping up around London over the past week of civil unrest. Honestly, I’d have expected more to be stolen if they weren’t emblazoned on literal bridges and walls.
