Famous British artist Banksy has revealed a new work that appeared in London ahead of Christmas.

According to Ukrinform, the new mural was posted on the artist’s Instagram page.

The mural, painted above a garage, depicts two children lying in winter clothing, gazing up at the stars.

Euronews reports that the artwork appeared on the wall of a building in west London.

An identical mural also appeared near the base of the Centre Point tower in central London, though Banksy did not share this version on his social media account.

Banksy’s works are often politically charged, satirical, and critical of government policies. However, the latest piece appears not to carry an overt political message. Some observers suggest that the new mural may touch on the issue of child homelessness.
