Public art?

This is my favourite piece of graffiti which is close to Crossmyloof(*) Train station.

He sits above some garages and I think he has walking sticks but other folk have said they are light sabers. Either way he's been there for quite a while and no-one has tried to get rid of him. What do you think?

(*) Crossmyloof means "cross my palm" and the name reportedly comes from when Mary Queen of Scots was there for the battle of the same name and had an encounte with a gypsy...but then again that could just be another Scottish myth.
