Description
Liberté, Égalité, Cable TV takes aim at the refugee crisis in Europe.
The image is a reimagination of the famous Napoleon Crossing the Alps portrait, which depicts a horse-mounted Napoleon with his red cape blowing in the wind.
In Banksy’s version, the figure on the horse is completely shrouded by a red cape evocative of an Islamic veil.
The work’s title makes viewers question the unequal distribution of liberty and equality in the modern world.
