Banksy Girl with Balloon Canvas, by Daniel Silk on May 11, 2021 14:59:32 GMT 1, Would look better out of the frame I think.
More true to how the genuine piece would have been displayed.

Yeh, I tried it once but the frame just separates it from the wall and was one of the reasons I bought it as it looks similar to Love is in the Bin.

Agreed. Delete this thread please. It's utterly embarrassing.

Banksy Girl with Balloon Canvas, by rodgro on May 11, 2021 20:55:21 GMT 1, Wouldn’t it be funny if we were all notified next month that this was in fact a real original canvas?? I also wonder if Nick or anyone else having such a visceral reaction to this post also felt the same way about the canvases being sold in Central Park for $50 a few years back by a solitary older gentlemen? My point here is “what’s the harm”? The sellers being honest and the reality is that Mr. B’s work is no longer affordable to the people who have historically followed, supported and collected street artists. Personally it would be hard for me to swallow paying 400 + shipping to me in the US but maybe it shouldn’t be as an original of this work would be a thousand fold. I’d like to think I’d hang it next to the rest of my collection and me and my family would enjoy it as much as we do our original pieces. Anyway, just my thoughts. Carry on

Carry on I think they were saying delete the post, because there are people ... who start implying it is a real canvas. It is clearly a fake and it would be destroyed if it made its way to PC as they wouldn't want it to fall into the wrong hands. Also Banksy wouldn't do these Central Parks stunts anymore as it would encourage more people to make and try to sell fakes. |

Problem is when fakes likes this get in the wrong hands and then sent off to auction and sold as genuine works.

In my opinion ,the best way is to write on the back that it's a copy

OP is just hoping somebody with more money than sense sees his ad, also loves the image and the exact same from and is too lazy to recreate this themselves.
I cannot believe I have to write this. I always held the majority of this board's members in high regard intellectually.

Banksy Girl with Balloon Canvas, by sean1397 on May 19, 2021 7:20:55 GMT 1, I think people are negative for two reasons:
I believe these fakes, copies, etc are illegal. If I go and copy someones work and sell it I have broken the law in many countries. Many sites delete this for these reasons and want nothing to do with sales of these things. I highly doubt the fake Banksy police are coming but this is why most sites take these down.
These things get sold as real sometimes. For every honest seller (? how honest buying fake copywritten works are) there are other people who might buy this and try to pass it off as real. Prob wont fly for a Banksy for 100s of 1000s but could happen with other works all the time
