BANSKY. Free Palestine.

(Bethlehem): Walled Off Hotel, 2018.  First edition.  Original poster.  The poster shows children playing on a swing ride around a watchtower with a slogan that reads: “Visit historic Palestine, the Israeli army liked it so much they never left!”.  The poster was first revealed on the artists Instagram account and was, it is believed, issued to encourage tourism in Palestine. The poster by Banksy, who is known for his pro-Palestine activism, was met with backlash and outrage in Israel, with some Israelis sharing on social media an edited photoshopped version that has a different pro-Israel logo.  This original poster, measuring approx., 42cm by 30cm has the embossed logo in the lower left hand corner and is stamped in green on the verso side of the print.
