As of April 2025, Banksy's print market has undergone a significant transformation, evolving from the speculative highs of the early 2020s into a more mature and stable landscape.
Market Correction and Stabilization
Following a peak in 2021, Banksy's print market experienced a notable correction with the current turnover in the market remaining five times higher than 2015 levels, indicating a resilient market foundation
Demand for Iconic Works
Despite the market's recalibration, demand for Banksy's most iconic prints remains robust. The "Girl with Balloon" series continues to dominate, with an unsigned version selling for over $115,000 at Phillips' January 2025 auction . Other sought-after works, such as "Love Rat" and "Morons," have also achieved strong auction results, underscoring the enduring appeal of Banksy's imagery.

The current market presents opportunities for both seasoned collectors and new investors. While high-value pieces are less frequently available, the scarcity of these works enhances their long-term investment potential.

Authentication and Security
Authentication remains paramount in the Banksy market. Buyers are advised to seek works verified by Pest Control, Banksy's official authentication body.
