Blek Le Rat – pioneering French Graffiti artist and one of the godfathers of the European Street art movement uses stencils instead of stylised lettering in his graffiti to create his iconic and unmissable style. His works have become more political and you will spot the use of ‘Rats’ in his works which he states symbolise “they create fear, they are synonymous with invasion and they are the only wild animals apart from pigeons that live in the city.” ‘The Piedpiper Le Fifre’ features said rat, as well as legend from the town of Hamelin, Germany in the Middle Ages ‘The Pied Piper’. This piece is signed and numbered by the artist.
