- The title reveals Banksy's homage to the art of Jean-Michel Basquiat, in which he transposes his well-known motif of the crown into his own work
- The white motif on a black background is strongly reminiscent of Keith Haring's well-known 'Subway Drawings' and places itself in the tradition of 1980s street art
- Banksy is known worldwide for his ironic criticism of capitalism and commercialisation, and he always takes aim at the art market, as this graphic impressively proves
