(After) Banksy (b. 1974, England) “CND Soldiers" (2019) Limited Edition (2/50) reproduction print on 360 g Arches paper inspired by the image that first appeared outside Parliament during a 2003 anti-Iraq war protest that was later confiscated by authorities.  In Banksy’s familiar style of black and white stencil on a monochromatic background, this image depicts one soldier painting a large peace sign on the wall and another soldier, armed with a machine gun, on lookout watching his accomplice’s back.  Measures 16 x 12 inches unframed.   Signature imprimee (stamped), Titled, Numbered, Dated.  Comes with Certificate of Edition.  Prints of this image have been created in different color variations.

 A limited edition screen print of the image was released in 2005, and then it was reconstructed for the “State Britain” installation at the Tate Britain in 2007.  The peace sign originally symbolized the British Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) of 1957 and is now widely known as an international symbol of peace.

Banksy was born in 1974, in England. He is a graffiti artist from Bristol, who is famous for his artworks, widespread all over the world. Despite his success, nobody knows his real name, due to the artist’s will to carefully keep his real name from the mainstream media. He is known for his original technique, which allows to distinguish his artworks immediately. In particular, he uses a combination with a distinctive stencilling technique, in order to promote alternative aspects of politics.                                                                                                     There are different opinions about his work: someone believe that his works improve the quality of the urban environment where they are placed, giving a voice to the people who cannot express themselves; others think that his work is an example of vandalism or that his political beliefs (apparently left wing) are not shared by the majority of the inhabitants of the environments that he decorate. However, thanks to the secrecy around his real identity and his subversive character, Banksy has achieved somewhat of a cult following from some of the younger age group within the stencilling community.
