Two of Banksy's Central Park "Spray Art" Canvases Sell for $214,000 USD

A New Zealand woman has hit the jackpot in the art world after selling two Banksy canvases for $214,000 USD at Bonhams, works which she purchased for just a fraction of the final selling price. The unsuspecting investor paid $60 USD a piece back in October last year during Banksy’s “New York residency.” The pair of authentic stencils, Kids on Guns and Winne The Pooh, are two of a series of pieces sold that day at an anonymous and nondescript stall outside Central Park.
