Banksy Love Rat Print, by peted77 on Dec 22, 2020 11:05:18 GMT 1, Thanks for the comments. I got a bit worried about the numbering on the right then remembered that question cropping up some time ago!
I am confident about the lack of bleaching as I have intentionally only hung the piece in inner rooms and well away from light, however I've made an appointment today with the local art gallery to have the piece removed from the frame as that would inevitably be required for transport anyway.
I'll be taking detailed pictures so they'll be available for anyone who's interested.
Reference was made to the numbering, it's in the mid 100's.
In the meantime, image of the COA attached.
Thanks Pete

Banksy Love Rat Print, by peted77 on Dec 22, 2020 15:02:42 GMT 1, So I've been to the gallery today to have the print removed from the frame and she's lovely. I have some images of the back as the top hanging tape is coming off, and I need to take some pictures of the front. There is no light burn or bleaching where the border was sat against the print so would make a good candidate for a float mount if that's what you wanted.
Images to follow, hopefully tomorrow (Weds 23/12)
Thanks Pete

Going off recent auctions and condition of print, if somebody is looking for one it shouldn't last long. I didn't say it was a bargain either .

Banksy Love Rat Print, by Richy Rich on Dec 24, 2020 8:50:37 GMT 1, To be fair itโs worth what ever a buyer is willing to pay for it and that might not necessarily match up with what the seller values it at.
Itโs hammered at around ยฃ45/50k in the last two auctions so my guess is that it wouldnโt hang around long at ยฃ50/55k for a private sale. Does that mean the seller has to sell for that? Hell no. Their print. Their price. If itโs too high it wonโt sell. Simples.

It's a game of smoke and mirrors so it seems, I've had a few contact me and offer me a ride on the "sell me your Banksy merry go round" .. Consignment only of course, but send your print to us to inspect first.. Ermmm. NO

Banksy Love Rat Print, by marcm on Feb 16, 2022 14:08:54 GMT 1, Hello everybody,
Been scrolling here and the internet for the last couple off days in search of info about the love rat and ended up here.
I've been offered a love rat by a friend , who says its supposed to come from a gallery in Belgium.
I know its not an original cause of the price but i want to find more info about it.
Also, the colour red of the heart seems faded...
The one he offered me is signed on the bottom right corner and numbered 126/150 in bottom right corner.
In the bottom left corner is the elephant stamp.
Am i correct to say that there is an official limited edition print of 500 like in the link below ?
www.liveauctioneers.com/item/65017014_banksy-love-rat-limited-edition-of-500-silksreen
How many reprints or official reproduction are there beside the 750 original ones ?
This is a picture of the one they offered me.

Tons of copies of this print, some numbered, signed, stamped.
Gallery COA's mean nothing for Banksy works

Banksy Love Rat Print, by kwatis on Feb 16, 2022 15:43:52 GMT 1, I echo the same responses/questions that hnkpnk brought up. In addition, the paper looks too white, as the real deal is on somewhat off-white paper. And what was the price you are being offered this for? If we're talking anything more than $100, the professionalism of the gallery should be called into question. Its a shitty picture of a print in a frame. I'd expect much more quality and a number of other pictures to even consider purchasing from a gallery.
If you want to find out more info about it, regardless of you making a purchase or not, here are some additional questions/pointers to consider:
- does your friend know it's a fake? - what gallery in Belgium is selling this? - have they sold or do they currently offer other Banksy's - if they have sold/are selling others, is the authenticity of these other items being called into question - how did the gallery come to be in possession of this; is it a consignment or something that they bought
Also when trying to determine authenticity of a print, you should ask for pictures of it unframed. Inspection of it out of frame would be telling of any damage resulting from how it was framed.
What are the dimensions and do they match the dimensions of the original POW release?
So many warning signs with this one and you seem to be aware of all of them. What did you hope to hear from this forum other than the responses you're getting?

Banksy Love Rat Print, by marcm on Feb 16, 2022 17:03:05 GMT 1, Thanks for the replys all.
My friends thinks its '' real '' as in another print after the original ones. The dimensions are 35x50. He got hold of it a couple of years ago in a trade with someone who had a gallery in Genk ( city in Belgium ) I know its not one off the 750 originals but because i see so many fakes on the internet , maybe there was a reprint that was offical because it has the POW print and everything.

Or "maybe" stay and learn from other users, but do listen and don't waste their time with the word "maybe"
