An oil painting by the artist Banksy showing the British House of Commons full of chimpanzees was sold in London for 9.8 million pounds (11 million euros).\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Banksy\"<\/p>\n

According to Sotheby’s catalogue, Banksy’s work with chimpanzees in Parliament “offers a premonitory glimpse of the increasingly tumultuous politics in the contemporary UK.”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The 4 metre wide work entitled Devolved Parliament was painted by the artist from Bristol in 2009. The painting was expected to sell for between $1.85 million and $2.47 million, but the painting nearly quintupled the estimated value at Sotheby’s auction house in London.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The auction lasted 13 minutes, and was a pulse among 10 different bidders, Sotheby’s noted.<\/p>\n

In his social networks the artist published a photo of the work with the following caption:<\/p>\n

\n

I did this ten years ago.
\nThe Bristol Museum has put it back on display to mark Brexit’s day.
\n“Laugh now, but one day no one will be in charge.”<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
