The ‘Grannies’ is a silkscreen print created in 2006 by Banksy. This artwork is a part of the limited edition of 150 signed prints. The millennial pink hue contrasts sweetly with the stencil-esque black and white grannies as they knit sweaters with slogans “Punks Not Dead” and “Thug For Life” - a humorous juxtaposition of scene and message, his signature motif cleverly disguised, as usual. The harmless grannies appear content to be partaking in such a humble act of rebellion, perhaps this is to remind the viewer not to underestimate the relatively innocuous appearance of the older generation, which acts as a guise for their rebellious pasts or put simply, to not judge a book by it's cover. The work is signed by the artist in pencil on the lower right corner. 'Grannies' arrives ready to install, outfitted with a custom-made frame, a white underlay matte, UV protective non-glare glass and wire on reverse. The 'Grannies’ comes with the Arton seal of approval for authenticity, quality, and exquisite condition.
