Regular followers will know that the FlogBlogger is a massive Banksy fan and has written about him a couple of times over the years. So, it has been a week of mixed emotions....

Firstly: The classic “Sweeping Maid” which stood resplendent in all of its peeling glory near Chalk Farm Tube Station was painted over with a nauseatingly bright piece of artwork. No offence to the artist, but the dull faded glory of the cheeky Banksy always made me smile as I strolled by, now I take a different route so I don’t have to.

…And then, on the very same day : A customer asked us to sell this limited edition Banksy screen print for her, complete with the original certificate and all of the trimmings. One of my favourite Flogit4u auctions so far, which is saying something considering some of the super cool things we get in on a weekly basis. A mixed week, maybe, but it’s still pretty cool to have held a piece of modern art history…just for a wee minute.
