( CNN ) The elusive artist Banksy is known for producing powerful imagery , so it makes sense that more than 100,000 people would share his Instagrammed tribute to those killed in Paris on Wednesday . Except the artist says it 's not his . After 12 people were killed Wednesday during a lunchtime attack on the offices of a Paris-based satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo , an illustration was posted on the Instagram account @ Banksy , which has about a million followers . The drawing shows a sharpened pencil with the word `` yesterday '' written above it , followed by a broken pencil with the word `` today '' and a final image marked `` tomorrow , '' with the broken portion of the pencil sharped to create two pencils . However , a representative for Banksy has denied to The Independent newspaper that the image is his creation , as has been claimed . The caption on the Instagram says `` RIP . '' A tag was later added for French illustrator Lucille Clerc , who is based in London . `` We can confirm this is not by Banksy , '' the representative said . Clerc tweeted her tribute to the dead , among whom were several respected political cartoonists , with the caption `` Break one , thousand will rise # CharlieHebdo # JeSuisCharlie # raiseyourpencilforfreedom . '' It 's just one of many tributes that have appeared on social media as the world reacted in the wake of the shootings .
The video has been shared by more than 300 . It pays tribute to those killed in Wednesday 's Paris attack . Social media have been flooded with links to the victims .
