Still, all is not great as the painting, boasting a slingshot-carrying rat apparently disputing the Israeli occupation of the West Bank, where it was initially sprayed, has sparked ethical questions about its shrouded message.
Now, it resides at the Urban Gallery in downtown Tel Aviv, juxtaposed with glass and steel modern skyscrapers.
Created clandestinely in 2007, the painting was initially near Israel's separation barrier in the occupied West Bank city of Bethlehem, but was later carried away under wraps.
