A third animal-inspired Banksy has appeared in London in the space of a few days.

The silhouette depicts three monkeys swinging from a train bridge over Brick Lane in the east of the city – not far from Shoreditch High Street.

Banksy posted an image of the artwork on Instagram.

On Tuesday, he also claimed a stencil of two elephants greeting one another from bricked-up windows in Chelsea, while a day earlier an ibex goat appeared near Kew Green in west London.

There’s been speculation about the meaning of the works as the enigmatic artist did not post any captions on the photos.

Banksy also made headlines in June when he released a migrant boat installation over the crowd at Glastonbury during performances by Idles and Little Simz.

The home secretary at the time, James Cleverly, criticised the stunt as “trivialising” the issue – with Banksy saying the rebuke was “a bit over the top”.

The Bristol artist was also behind a mural in north London in March, where green paint was sprayed behind a bare tree to mimic the foliage.
