The artwork, valued at 250,000 pounds, is in a first-floor corridor.

Emin, 48, famed for her 1999 ‘Unmade Bed’ entry for the Turner Prize, said she wanted to donate an “edgy” piece that visiting world leaders could relate to.

“We are very pleased to showcase British artists,” the newspaper quoted a spokesman for 10 Downing Street as saying.
