In this artwork, Banksy replaces Queen Elizabeth II's portrait with that of the late Princess Diana. The note humorously reads 'Banksy of England' instead of 'Bank of England'. Below the banner, an inscription states, 'I promise to pay the bearer on demand the ultimate price', alluding to the tragic fate of Princess Diana. In terms of quality and production, the note is meticulously crafted using inks on paper that closely resemble those used for official UK currency.27de 35
