London Museum has announced that it has acquired Banksy's Piranhas artwork.
It is to go on display at the museum's new location in the Smithfield area of the city next year.
Piranhas, which saw fish painted in a police sentry box, made headlines last summer when it appeared as part of the street artist's animal-themed artworks in the UK capital.
The collection concluded with a gorilla appearing to lift up a shutter on the entrance to London Zoo.
London Museum, which will move from the city’s Docklands to its new location in 2026, will display the work after a City Of London committee voted to donate it to the attraction.
Director of London Museum, Sharon Ament, said: "The only thing better than having a Banksy appear on the walls of London Museum in Smithfield or Docklands is having a Banksy on display inside.
"No other artist connects with people so profoundly, with such vigour, humour, and honesty than Banksy.
"If you’re lucky, a Banksy will appear at the end of the road in which you live and it’s always a moment when one does. Banksy brings art to the streets and it’s for everyone.
"We are that, too, in the context of a museum, of course, so what a great acquisition and gift to have for the people of London - a City of London Police Box, filled with piranhas."
Banksy’s animals collection was made up of nine works including a rhino mounting a silver car, two elephant silhouettes with their trunks stretched out towards each other and three monkeys that looked as though they were swinging on a bridge.
The works were stolen, covered up or vandalised after being painted across London from 5-13 August last year.
