The mysterious street artist Banksy has reportedly struck again after a new piece of art has appeared in a London park, with many believing it to be his work.
The reported new Banksy art, located in London Fields, Hackney, east London, features a majestic reindeer looking up towards the sky.
It is draped in multicoloured fairy lights hanging from a metal bar attached to the wall it’s painted on.
The work reportedly appeared in the park on Tuesday, December 23.
One TikTok user said: ‘So intrigued to know if it is a Banksy!! Saw today too.’
Another wrote: ‘Antlers were made for pimping up with a few Christmas lights.’
A third simply said: ‘Impeccable find.’
The unknown artist is yet to confirm it is his, but the multi-textural fourth-wall-busting nature of the piece is reminiscent of his style.
Banksy has already unveiled a series of nine animal-themed murals across London which was dubbed a ‘Concrete Jungle Safari’.
If indeed the artwork really is a new Banksy piece, it will be the second time the anonymous street artist has struck this Christmas.
He has already claimed responsibility for one new speculated Banksy piece that emerged this week.
The artist posted a picture of his sketch on Instagram, which depicts a pair of children lying on the ground in winter gear and pointing up at the sky.

The figures popped up on the side of an abandoned building in Queen’s Mews, Bayswater in west London.
The mural was first spotted on Monday, December 22.
However it was boarded up by workmen just hours after the elusive graffiti artist confirmed he was behind the artwork.
An identical spray-paint of the same work, with exactly the same kids in the same pose, also popped up near the Centre Point building on the intersection of Tottenham Court Road and Oxford Street.
Banky’s Instagram account has not claimed that piece as his own too, as has become customary.
It’s believed the Tottenham Court Road version appeared first, to excite the Christmas shoppers milling around near the popular Outernet attraction.
Pictures of the version in west London, a short walk north of Kensington Gardens, then emerged overnight.
