Banksy Rats On Queens Road, Bristol

This one was a really cute set of early rats, and a photo of them was for sale in the Severnshed Exhibition in February 2000. Caused some confusion that, as everyone just thought they could go and get their own photo, but it now seems the photos might have been used to sell originals of the image.

It was on the white wall on the back of these steps, which have been painted and repainted time and against since. The paint was flaking off it last year, and you could see bits of the rats emerging and flaking off here and there, before they got painted over again. Guess they’re completely past restoration now, even if it were possible.

  1. Ahh, I remember these wee three fellas very well living as I did in a flat at the top of those steps.

    Been enjoying these photos. Keep em coming.
