AN ORIGINAL piece of art by street artist Banksy has been sold at auction.
The artwork, a print called the Grin Reaper, is signed and numbered and went on sale at an auction at Bellmans antiques and interiors in Wisborough Green on Wednesday afternoon.
Bellmans sold the privately owned piece, created in 2005, for £15,000.
The print was the first Banksy piece sold at the auction house.
The sale comes after several Banksy-style graffiti works were spotted in various places around Horsham.
Bellmans said that the sale price was “very reasonable”.
