Bad boy of the artworld, Banksy is a graffiti artist from London whose work has recently garnered international interest from celebrities and collectors alike. Banksy is at the same time the most notorious and anonymous artist of our time. This British graffiti artist has become widely acclaimed through his astute visual witticisms, publically ridiculing tradition and current events alike. Making references to art history and politics, he satirically comments on culture and ethics. Banksy’s works have been shown in galleries internationally since 2002, and his graffiti has been seen in cities worldwide.

This print by Banksy is number 221 out of an edition of 500. It is signed and numbered in pencil. It is in excellent condition and comes with a full provenance report and pest control report.

Art Market Data

Banksy Price Development
  • More About this Chart

    • The chart shows the annual average premium prices of lots sold by the artist, which are calculated by dividing the total sales volume of the premium prices of all lots sold by the number of lots sold. For 2009, the data included in the calculations is current through the 15th of June. The charts will be updated every three months.

      The data is culled from the artnet Price Database, which has collected auction sales results for over twenty years.

      Prices are stated in USD in order to facilitate comparison and analysis of the market reports. When sales took place in another currency, the conversion of that amount into USD was done on the basis of the average conversion rate applicable on the day of the sale.

      Although most auction houses these days report transactions in prices that include a buyer’s premium, some auction houses report only the hammer price. Based on an analysis of historical auction catalogs, we apply a formula to all records with hammer prices to estimate the effect of a buyer’s premium. All prices used in the charts are either reported in or equated to hammer price plus buyer’s premium.
