Banksy has struck again, revealing a cheeky new rhino mural in London – his eighth piece of animal artwork in eight days.

The latest image shows the animal mounting an old silver Nissan Micra – which has a traffic cone on its bonnet, apparently to resemble another rhinoceros.

Banksy‘s latest graffiti campaign began last week, when an ibex goat appeared near Kew Bridge, in Richmond, west London. This was followed by murals of elephants, monkeys, a wolf, pelicans and a cat, which appeared in various locations across the capital – and swimming piranhas appearing overnight in a police box in the City of London on Sunday.

Fans thought the series might finish at the end of last week – so as the latest image marks the start of a second week, the question now is, how long will the anonymous artist continue?

The rhino mural is situated on the side of a building in Westmoor Street in Charlton, southeast London, and has been designed to look as though the animal is climbing on to a car parked next to the property.

Banksy has been posting animal artwork to his Instagram at around 1pm every day since Monday 5 August, with no captions or details of locations.

Some have been silhouettes, while the school of fish was a departure from his usual style. The rhino is more detailed than some, suggesting the artist may have had more time to plan and execute the design.

“This is the best yet,” one follower wrote underneath the rhino post. “That car just went up 100x in price,” wrote another.

The first piece of graffiti in the series depicted a goat with rocks falling down below it, just above where a CCTV camera is pointed.

It is painted in Banksy’s signature stencil-style silhouette near to Kew Bridge in southwest London, and appeared on Monday 5 August.
