The artist has not claimed the work as his own yet.
If he does, fans will welcome the news as it suggests the artist may be continuing with his “Spraycation”.
Despite not being confirmed as a Banksy yet, the council has hired a security guard to protect it from vandalism.
Banksy has created many pieces of satirical street art throughout his career, which started in the 90s.
DON’T MISS:
Sadly many of his pieces have been lost due to vandalism or have been sold off to private collectors.
The latest piece to be destroyed appeared on the inside of a London Underground train.
The piece was called ‘If You Don’t Mask, You Don’t Get’.
It was painted inside a Circle Line service carriage.
Unfortunately, by the time Banksy claimed the work as his own via his Instagram account, cleaners had wiped the work away.
A TFL source told BBC: “It was treated like any other graffiti on the network.
“The job of the cleaners is to make sure the network is clean, especially given the current climate,” they said.
Banksy himself has even famously destroyed his creations.
He destroyed an iconic piece, Girl With Balloon, after it has been sold at auction.
The work was shredded in its frame after the winning bid of more than £1m was made and accepted at auction.
