In the 2003 recording, BBC reporter Nigel Wrench asks him if he is called "Robert Banks", and the artist replies: "It's Robbie."

This has long been the subject of speculation online, with variations of Robin, Robert and Robbie suggested.

A Chelsea Rich Home now has a Banksy

Old Home back in the early days of 1696
Window Tax, made many homes Brick Up.

[Imposed in England in 1696, the tax—a kind of
predecessor of the modern property tax—was levied on
dwellings with the tax liability based
on the number of windows.
The tax led to efforts to reduce tax bills
through such measures as the boarding up
of windows and the construction of houses
with very few windows.]


Banksy also did a Goat up on a ledge

And 3 Monkeys

Presumably the price/ value of his pieces will drop alarmingly now his ‘mask’ has been lifted ??

Presumably he can now be prosecuted by councils and property owners for defacing/ damaging property ?

It may take a short while for the fat to hit the fan so to speak .

His big selling point was his anonymity which is now not the case
