Banksy in London - Westway Highwayman, by cashman on Aug 24, 2009 15:56:51 GMT 1, could see this image working in many locations , covering buildings with his roler then off into the night ,
You say that, but the circle on the building looks like the sun setting so it could be more site specific...
I bet by the time ive wrote this someone will say it would make a great print !

Banksy in London - Westway Highwayman, by nex on Aug 24, 2009 15:59:35 GMT 1, the face looks dodgy from this pic, and i'd be surprised to see a t shirt image now become a street piece, but the horse looks fantastic and the idea is great

Banksy in London - Westway Highwayman, by Agent Provocateur on Aug 24, 2009 16:29:35 GMT 1, Not convinced it is Banksy, but there's two things that could lead you to that conclusion... his original roller zorro image and the pink colour the roller's using. Isn't that the same colour as the cans poster and banners outside the Bristol exhibition?
I must get out

Banksy in London - Westway Highwayman, by Deleted on Aug 24, 2009 16:29:46 GMT 1, my first impression was eelus too, but now I've seen that enlarged picture I'm not su sure.. the way the shadow is done in this piece doesnt looks like Eelus to me..But I dont think it is a banksy either.. the legs of the horse look slightly off, and Banksy doesnt make mistakes like that IMO..
come on, hit me!

Where abouts is it exactly? I have been trying to find it on Multimap Bird' Eye view, but with no luck
