Description
Banksy, and famous but anonymous street artist who is active in the US and the UK, painted this "Armored Dove of Peace" adjacent to the concrete section of the West Bank. It is a dove, with an olive branch in its beak, wearing a brey armored vest. The vest has a bulls-eye on it. This is one of several paintings Banksy did on the Separation Barrier. Here it is viewed through a bus window.
