Paris, Jan 27: A painting belonging to renowned street artist Banksy has been stolen from Bataclan theatre in Paris. According to a tweet posted by the theatre, the Banksy mural was painted on a fire exit door at the theatre. In the work of art, a girl dressed in a white and black veil can be seen bowing her head slightly, gazing at the ground.

The theatre said in a tweet on Saturday said, "It's a deep sadness that moves us today. Banksy's work, a symbol of remembrance and belonging to everyone -- locals, Parisians, citizens of the world -- was taken from us." Bronze Hippo Sculpture Weighing 680 Kg Stolen From Luxurious Chilstone Garden in UK.

The painting was reportedly a tribute to those who lost their lives in a terror attack that struck Bataclan in November 2015, leaving at least 90 people dead. According to CNN, the mural was one among the many belonging to Banksy across Paris, a significant number of which were based on the migrant crisis Europe witnessed in June last year. The painting showed a sad figure wearing a veil in black and white, her head slightly bowed as she gazed downward. The Bataclan mural appeared last June, along with a handful of other works.
