Streetart legend Bansky has left his stenciled pieces for the first time in Paris. As usual the artist gave attention to a current political issue with his clear and provocative motives.

Edit: The stancil was already painted over.
Also stancils of rats were found, which emblematise the pollution of metropols like Paris. Banksy interacted with the graffiti that was already on the wall.
Bansky already broached the issue of cruelty towards animals in the past several times and it´s still an important topic to the artist:
