A Banksy artwork is at the centre of a legal row after the East London club on whose wall it was painted claimed it was removed without permission and put up for sale in the United States.
The piece, titled Yellow Lines Flower Painter, was created in 2007 on the exterior of Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club. It shows an exhausted worker in dungarees slumped on a tin of paint, next to a flower sprouting from the street’s double yellow lines.
