Banksy's 'Devolved Parliament' May Fetch $3 Million at Sotheby's Auction
September 30, 2019
The largest-known painting by the artist Banksy will soon be sold at auction. "Devolved Parliament" depicts Britain's Parliament populated by chimpanzees. The painting can be seen as a not-so-subtle dig at the country's elected officials, especially in light of Brexit, the U.K.'s separation from the European Union. Alex Branczik, European head of contemporary art at Sotheby's, said, "This is just one of a number of works that he's produced on this complex issue of Brexit."
