Watch: Artist impersonates a train cleaner and paints graffiti of sneezing rats, deleted by subway management • Management: "Rigid graffiti policy"

Cleaners from the London Underground Service erased from a train car a work of art by the esteemed graffiti artist Banksy, less than a day after it was painted. This effectively erased a work of art by an artist, whose works are valued in the millions. Like all of Banksy's works, this one also had a clear message, saying not to underestimate the importance of protective masks during the Corona period, but this important message did not touch the hearts of those in charge of subway services.

 The work itself was uploaded by the artist as a video to the web, in which he was seen dressing before entering the caravan in the clothes of British train cleaners including a disinfectant container he carried with him. In the car itself, Banksy painted a rat sneezing and spreading many virus particles on the car window, and three more rats that use the face mask used to protect against the virus in unhelpful ways - cover with them, fall with them and more.

The artist added to the opening doors more rat embellishments with a positive message, an excerpt from the song "Tubthumping" - "I Get Knocked Down But I Get Up Again" (I fall, but get up again). As always, as part of the video, the artist maintained his anonymity, and in order to be able to secretly paint, he even asked one of the passengers, who thought he was cleaning, as mentioned, to vacate the caravan.
