This high-quality stretched canvas poster by Banksy, “Stop and Search,” is a monochromatic masterpiece that tells the tale of Dorothy, her dog Toto, and a policeman who is looking through her basket. A splash of blue in the police officer’s latex gloves gives this edition of 500 autographed prints a unique and emotive quality that makes it a must-have for any collector.
During the 1990s, Banksy worked as a street artist, political activist, and director in England. His works, which combine dark humour and graffiti and are created using a special stencilling method, have been painted on walls, bridges, and streets all around the world. Massive Attack member 3D served as inspiration for Banksy’s art, which came from the Bristol underground scene. The majority of Banksy’s works, which are impermanent, are displayed on easily accessible surfaces, and many of them are sold again even after being taken down from the wall. Additionally, Banksy’s own organisation, Pest Control, sells the artist’s creations.
