A festive-themed piece of street art has popped up in Glasgow - just in time for Christmas.

The work, by the Pink Bear Rebel, is a comment on the capitalist nature of Christmas and urges Glaswegians to think of the real meaning of the holiday.

Santa can be seen in the satirical illustration holding a bag of money while an elf polishes his shoes on a Finnieston wall.

The words "It's beginning to look a lot like capitalism" are scrawled across the wall.

The Pink Bear Rebel is known for their commentary on modern society and has actually outlined what they intends to do through their art.

This isn't the first time the Pink Bear Rebel has caught the eye of the city.

A previous mural appeared in the city’s West End, on Bank Street, close to Kelvinbridge Subway.

The work-of-art, by the Pink Bear Rebel, depicted a blindfolded Theresa Maybeing dragged along by a blindfolded British bulldog wearing a Union flag jacket.
