Banksy ‘Morons’ print set to fetch 5-figure sum

A Banksy print showing people in an auction room bidding for a work with the words ‘I Can’t Believe You Morons Actually Buy This Shit’ on it is expected to sell for a five-figure sum after it goes on show next week.

‘Morons’, which is valued at around £10,000 (€12,300), is one of more than 70 works by the secretive street artist going on display in London at a selling exhibition organised by auction house Sotheby’s and his former agent Steve Lazarides.

Other works in the show, where prices range from £4,000 to more than £500,000, include ‘Pest Control — Banksus Militus Vandalus’.
