It might be on the wall of an old barbershop, or in the subway: Banksy’s pictures appear suddenly, overnight, as if by magic. Works by the famously mysterious British street artist can often be found in unexpected - even unpromising - places.

His recent works focus on the pandemic, with its heroes and victims.
