Choose your favourite iconic Banksy print from either Girl With Balloon or Banksy's Love Is In The Air
Girl with Balloon, 2002
Girl with Balloon is perhaps Banksy’s most notable and iconic work. A 2017 public poll ranked Girl with Balloon as the UK’s number one favourite artwork. The image depicts a young girl, whose hair and dress are blowing in the wind, reaching for (or releasing) a red, heart-shaped balloon that has slipped from her grasp. The red balloon, as the only spot of color, is an archetypal symbol of childhood and freedom many of us connect with. More than a simple child’s toy, it evokes fragility of what it stands for: innocence, dreams, hope and love. Her heartbreaking gesture reaches out to all of us making this one of the most recognizable artworks of the 21st century.
This iconic visual first appeared in London’s Southbank in 2002 and was accompanied by the quotation “There is always hope”.

Rage, the Flower Thrower, Love Is In The Air, 2005
Rage, the Flower Thrower or Love is in the Air is one of the most iconic stencils by Banksy. It shows a masked Palestinian throwing a bouquet of flowers. The anger and frustration can be seen in the man’s posture as he tries to bomb the establishment with flowers. It first appeared in 2003 as a large format stencilled graffiti in Bethlehem shortly after the construction of the West Bank Wall. The graffiti was made on the 760km wall that separates Palestine from Israel. Spanning 760km, the wall, as Banksy put it, “essentially turns Palestine into the world’s largest open prison”. The wall rapidly became a giant canvas for paintings and writings protesting against its construction.
