Awesome. Thank you for the photos.
__________
When was this?
Looks like you showed up at the perfect moment:
Some welcome peace and quiet. Especially given the slight frenzy over the last 12 days.
No pushing or shoving. Nobody hassling anyone. Nobody blocking the view.
You could remain in prime position, up‑close.
And take all the time you wanted to check out that wooden hoarding and those two separate layers of plastic.

I like how they have framed the hoarding as if to somehow make it more aesthetically pleasing to the viewer. I think Banksy came back and itโs part of the artwork. Maybe it is about the environment after all. If we continue like this, this will be the only way to remember what a tree looked liked: in a museum ๐

This will stay in the history of surrealism art ! And it could be a great essay for schoolboys : "how far the protection of art can go - to disfigure it "

Iโm never washing again! image upload To be honest this bit of card now looks less rubbish than the tree on the wall behind all the ephemera.
Is it normal for Banksy to abandon such things? Wondering if they were distracted and any chance the wall is unfinished.

As a guide it should measure 24 red bricks. In fact, the size of the image to be covered corresponds to approximately 24 building bricks (in height).
Good point, Watson. ;-)

Is it normal for Banksy to abandon such things? Wondering if they were distracted and any chance the wall is unfinished. they painted the figure first and then used this bit to cover it while they sprayed the wall. The splashed paint doesn't look anything like the paint on the actual mural, so it wasn't used to cover the figure... also the figure would have a clear square around it, where paint was masked by this board, but it doesn't.
The only place I can see where it might have been used, is on the right hand side, to protect the metal fence, or block the view slightly from the pavement next to them... but, again, the paint splats don't look the same as the mural.
(I'm also curious about where that photo was taken, as the building and car park also don't look like the buildings around the mural.)

When I arrived the piece of cardboard was lying adjacent to where the figure was painted on the grass. Still wet. I picked it up to see if it was the stencil, then left it where I found it next to the figure, IMO it was defo used to cover the figure while the wall was sprayed.
i went to get my family to show them and returned 5 mins later and the cardboard had been moved to the side of the building.
they painted the figure first and then used this bit to cover it while they sprayed the wall. The splashed paint doesn't look anything like the paint on the actual mural, so it wasn't used to cover the figure... also the figure would have a clear square around it, where paint was masked by this board, but it doesn't. The only place I can see where it might have been used, is on the right hand side, to protect the metal fence, or block the view slightly from the pavement next to them... but, again, the paint splats don't look the same as the mural. (I'm also curious about where that photo was taken, as the building and car park also don't look like the buildings around the mural.) When I arrived the piece of cardboard was lying adjacent to where the figure was painted on the grass. Still wet. I picked it up to see if it was the stencil, then left it where I found it next to the figure, IMO it was defo used to cover the figure while the wall was sprayed. i went to get my family to show them and returned 5 mins later and the cardboard had been moved to the side of the building.
