Monkey Queen transforms the iconic portrait of Queen Elizabeth II into a crown-wearing monkey in his traditionally brazen style. The black-and-white stencil depicts the monkey embellished in the royal jewels, appearing against a background in the colours of the Union Jack.
As one of the artist's more provocative works, Monkey Queen first appeared in a London club, Chill Out Zone, during the Queen’s Golden Jubilee. He then made headlines when the government demanded the removal of the work from the club's front window.

Hang-Up Rating:
The most famously anonymous artist in the world, Banksy made the front pages when he auto-shredded Girl With Balloon during a 2018 Sotheby's auction. Known for his thought-provoking social commentary, Banksy's varied works include the Walled Off Hotel (with its view of the West Bank barrier), cover art for Blur's Think Tank album, and a gigantic graffiti piece about Brexit, in the UK port of Dover.
