Description
BANKSY Di-Faced Tenner w/ signed Letter of Authenticity 100% Authentic Bought from the last owner directly from DOPE! Gallery. About the Piece: Color offset lithograph on paper. Di-Faced Tenner by Banksy with a portrait of Princess Diana and motto on the front: "I promise to pay the bearer on demand the ultimate price." The back bears the image of Darwin and the statement: “Trust no one.” 3 x 5.66 in. (7,6 x 14,4 cm). Magnetic Frame included. Backstory: Mostly known for his stencil and installation work, Banksy turned his attention to his native London's bills. In 2004, the artist printed one million pounds worth of his Di Faced Tenner. The play on the term "defaced" (di-faced) comes from the fact that Banksy substituted the Queen's face with that of Princess Diana. The altered bill, which also features the words "Banksy of England" were dropped into a crowd at the 2004 Notting Hill Carnival and later that year, The Reading Festival.
