The headline should say removing his artwork costs that much. The work itself was provided for literally 0p.
And was worth millions.
And in one case removing some art to be preserved in an art gallery was expensive. You can’t blame both overreactions on Banksy.
It doesn’t have to
Weird headline
I have no idea how they managed to get to those costs.

These two gentlemen and their colleagues standing around 24/7 likely play a big part.
Why this should be necessary is another question.
Is there any way to buy (prints of) his art without the money going to… Ya know… Someone with a fancy printer and zero morals? Like an official way? Or someone selling copies with profits (provably) going to charity or whatever?
I’d bring/send a high quality image to your local print shop to get a quote.
Just an idea.
So what, did this cost millions?
You know that is nearly nothing compared to anything with cars
