Brian Haw & Banksy CND Soldiers

Brian Haw in front of the Banksy CND Soldiers painting exhibited amongst the extensive Brian Haw peace camp displays facing Parliament. The painting shows two soldiers, one soldier painting the famous peace symbol in red, while the other soldier keeps a lookout. The work is by the elusive English street artist Banksy. Parliament Square, London, UK, 10/04/2006.

"One evening two blokes approached me in Parliament Square. One of them said that they had been talking about me in the pub and had decided to do something to help my peace protest. 'Got a couple of ideas for pictures for it!' A lot of people get ideas in the pub and nothing ever comes of it. However some days later they returned with two paintings which they installed amongst the other placards" Brian Haw

Editor's note: Banksy supported the Peace camp by providing two large works.
