This is an entire wall with an original banksy painting on it for sale, and could be the biggest ever banksy for sale. As seen on ITV, BBC, the metro newspaper and the independant. This is an amazing opportunity for serious art collectors, and Banksy lovers to own a real one off Banksy. Situated on the world famous Portobello Road this is one of Banksy's most recent street paintings. It has received an incredible amount of attention since it went up. We protected it with per-specs glass shortly after it went up so it is safe from vandals etc.


Removal and replacement of the wall is an additional cost. I advise you seek your own costing for this but shouldn't cost more than £5000.


Many people ask how he did the painting. So here is the story...



One might guess that he would come in the middle of the night but instead he got some people to put up a massive scafolding in on a sunday morning with portobello market at full swing. It was so busy noone noticed a massive scafolding covered in cloth like a tent being erected. 


Even someone from my office saw it and thought nothing of it. The neighbours next door twigged something was a bit weird and asked them who told them to put up a scafolding they were fobbed off by a fake name "hugo" by banksy's scafolding makers. They left it and banksy got to work. 


A few hours later the scafolding went down. And there it was. 


For press or sales enquiries email luti@lutimedia.com or call 0208 969 32 36 and speak to Luti Fagbenle. 


sotheby's have confirmed there is no doubt that this is an original banksy. See banksy's website to see his other version it at 

http://www.banksy.co.uk/outdoors/horizontal_1.htm 


To view the artwork go to 274D Portobello Road W10 5TE, Next door to the Falafel King
