Third Banksy artwork of the week appears in London

A third Banksy artwork has popped up in London in the space of just three days.

This latest piece is located on Brick Lane, east London, on a London Overground bridge and shows three monkeys swinging along.

As ever, this piece was posted to his official Instagram page which the mysterious artist uses to verify his work.

Each piece that has appeared this week has been posted at 1pm each afternoon.

The first sighting appeared on Monday and shows a goat precariously balancing on a pillar as rocks fall below it on Kew Green in Kew, West London.

Then two elephants appeared on Edith Terrace, Chelsea, where the average price of a home reached over £750,000 in the last year alone, according to RightMove.

On Monday one animal appeared, then on Tuesday two animals popped up and now today three animals feature.

People in the comments section under the new post are beginning to notice this pattern as well.

Banksy revealed an artwork of a goat perched on top of a wall near Kew Bridge in Richmond on Monday.

But just two hours after Banksy unveiled his goat art piece on his official Instagram page, an employee was spotted appearing to move the CCTV camera back to its original position after it was positioned facing the falling rocks.

And in Chelsea one particular dog and woman have become pretty famous after they were pictured walking right under the two elephants.

Lucy Boultbee Brooks, 32, was out walking her four-year-old beagle Rufus at 7am on Tuesday morning and little did she know that the world-famous artist could have been standing just yards away from her.

Lucy, who works in asset management, is the daughter of Clive Boultbee Brooks, founder of Boultbee, who previously owned shopping centres in Sweden worth more than £770m.

She told Metro the elephant painting had been splashed across a wall less than a minute’s walk from her house.
