31 of Banksy’s Most Important Artworks

28. Napalm

Banksy’s 2004 work on canvas, Napalm is his rendition of one of most iconic photographs during the Vietnam war in the 1970’s. Shot by Nick Ut, the 9-year old Phan Thi Kim Phuc was shown running naked as her back was burning from a napalm attack. In Banksy’s work, two of America’s most recognizable icons are shown holding hands with the young girl. Some believe it is a reference to the powerful country’s role in wars around the world.
