Artwork by anonymous artist Banksy found in Italy is displayed to journalists by Italian police and prosecutors ahead of a press conference. Italian police retrieved the piece of art by the famed street artist, which is an image of a girl in mourning painted on one of the emergency doors of the Parisian venue 'Le Bataclan', where Islamic State gunmen massacred 90 people.

Street artist Banksy claims a fifth mural in as many days, this time of two pelicans above a fish and chip shop in Walthamstow, North East London. The pelicans continue the elusive artist’s animal theme – on Monday it was a goat in Kew, South West London; Tuesday, two elephants in Chelsea, West London; Wednesday, three monkeys in Shoreditch, East London; Thursday’s wolf painted onto a satellite dish in Peckham, South East London was quickly stolen. Banksy’s works tend to offer social and political commentary, and this latest spurt of work has sparked speculation among fans about their meaning – and whether the safari of artworks will continue into the weekend… IMAGES
