Lazarides Makes Bank on Banksy

January 29, 2015 by Marion Maneker

Banksy, Sale Ends (28,489 USD)

Steve Lazarides grossed nearly $700,000 for the trove of Banksy works he sold in London this week. Bloomberg Business has details on some of the 31 works that found buyers:

Bonhams London auctioned off 33 works by the pseudo-anonymous, British graffiti artist, including a stencil on canvas called Precision Bombing that depicts figures in black in the path of a gun sight. The work has been bought and sold a whopping seven times since its creation in 2000. It sold just now for £40,000 (approx $60,000)—£10,000 above its high estimate of £30,000. Meanwhile, Silver Flag took in only $5,317.
