Creative Review magazine comissioned taxi artists Mistry and his son to create this for the cover of their magazine - the process is documented here. I didn't know this but "there were rumours that taxi art may be under threat as the city government sought to tighten regulations with the introduction of more modern vehicles. But, as they explain in our interview, the Mistrys are hopeful that their work will be allowed to carry on. It would be a shame to lose such a rich urban art form to bureaucratic conformity."
