Banksy, the anonymous street artist known for his political and social commentary, has recently unveiled a new mural in Hornsey Road, North London.
The mural depicts a stencil of a figure holding onto a pressure hose, who has sprayed a white residential wall with green paint. In front of the wall stands an old cherry tree, which appears to have been cut back and left bare. However, the figure has added back the greenery and restored the tree to its former glory. As a result, the tree is now full of foliage and life.
