The unusual cone appeared following the closure of the artist's Cut And Run exhibition on Monday.
Banksy's popular Cut And Run exhibition opened at the gallery in June and bosses said the artist's first official solo exhibition for 14 years broke box office records.In a sign welcoming people to the venue, Banksy explained that he brought the show there because his "favourite work of art in the UK" is right outside.
It said: "For anyone who isn't aware - the statue out the front has had a cone on its head continuously for the past 40 odd years. Despite the best efforts of the council and the police, every time one is removed another takes its place." Over the years the statue has worn a multitude of different cones, including a "Yes" cone in support of the Scottish Independence referendum in 2014 and a blue and yellow cone in support of Ukraine when the country was invaded by Russia in 2022.
