Artwork Introduction

Laugh Now, 2000 is one of Banksy’s most iconic and widely recognized artworks. The piece features a stenciled chimpanzee wearing a sandwich board that reads, "Laugh now, but one day we’ll be in charge." This powerful image serves as a critique of societal hierarchy, oppression, and the underappreciation of the working class. The monkey, often a symbol of human folly, is used here to highlight themes of power imbalance and social injustice.

As one of only 600 editions, Laugh Now is a highly collectible and historically significant piece that showcases Banksy’s mastery of street art and social commentary. Its bold design and thought-provoking message make it an essential acquisition for collectors of contemporary and urban art.
