8Laugh Now – Price: $449.349
Worth $449.249, this 6-meter artwork was made for the Brighton nightclub in 2002 and was later sold at the Bonhams Urban Art Action in 2008.
What started like a small deal turned out to be worth close to half a million dollars!
As you can see in the image, ‘Laugh Now’ is a portrait of monkeys appearing to be wearing sandwich boards.
Several monkeys are having the words ‘Laugh now, but one day we’ll be in charge‘ written on their sandwich board.
Next time you commission a local artist think about what could possibly happen in the future!
