Statue with Banksy’s signature appears in London

Although Banksy – whose real identity is not officially known – is famous for stencil-style images spray‑painted onto walls, he has previously left a statue in London. In 2004, a statue named The Drinker – a subversive take on Rodin’s The Thinker – was installed on Shaftesbury Avenue, central London, before being stolen soon afterwards.
