Pegasus
Donald Trump’s presidency has already inspired artists across the world to create many memorable and eye-catching pieces.
But this latest piece of work might be the most jaw-dropping.
Street artist Pegasus has painted this striking mural in Shoreditch, East London, featuring a slightly disturbing sight through an imaginary keyhole.
Theresa May spanking Trump in a bedroom.
Pegasus told Indy100 about his motivations behind the piece.

The keyhole was my way of pointing out that so much activity happens behind closed doors which we may never know about.

I understand Theresa May must be in a difficult situation, if we cannot trade freely with Europe, and we can't trade with America, who else can we trade with?
But I, along with millions, were hoping that she would pull him up on some of his divisive policies.
Her press conference, the infamous photo of them "holding" hands and her response to his travel ban made her come across as submissive to him.

I am definitely not a Trump fan. I cannot even bring myself to refer to him as the President because the reality of it seems like a terrible nightmare.
Sadly there will be more Trump related pieces to come over the next painful four years. Every time he opens his mouth it gives me more and more material to work from.
Pegasus has previously made pieces paying tribute to George Michael and Carrie Fisher.
Some of his most famous pieces feature the late great Amy Winehouse.
