London: Banksy new mural in Camden

November 11, 2011 butterfly 2 Comments

Banksy is back to the London streets, with a tribute to King Robbo, at the exact same spot that started controversy two years ago.

Banksy drew the outline like King Robbo did back in 1985, and added a “spray can” candle, as a well wisher to Robbo, currently in induced coma.
