Well Hung Lover by Banksy

Banksy is Bristol's most famous street artist — super mysterious too, no one really knows his real name! He started painting around the city back in the 90s, and his work always has that clever mix of humour and something meaningful. You'll find Well Hung Lover on Frogmore Street, just off Park Street — painted back in 2006. It shows a naked man hanging from a windowsill hiding from the woman's husband, who's looking out the window. Funny enough, Banksy didn't even realise the building was a sexual health clinic when he did it — thought that was such a great coincidence! People loved it so much it became the first legal street art piece in the UK, and the best view is from the Park Street bridge I have seen this so many times but I just love Banksy’s art style so much I will never not be in awe of it 🫶🏻
