Banksy’s signature black and white stencil style, the pair of octogenarians are set against a pink background, which juxtaposition serves to heighten the humorous contradiction between scene and message, a technique mastered by the artist. As it is often the case in Banksy’s works, several interpretations are possible. Perhaps this artwork reminds the viewer never to underestimate the relatively innocuous appearance of the older generation, which acts as a guise for their rebellious pasts.
