The Flower Thrower, Flower Bomber, Rage, or Love is in the Air is a 2003 stencil mural in Beit Sahour in the West Bank by the graffiti artist Banksy, depicting a masked man throwing a bunch of flowers.[1] It is considered one of Banksy's most iconic works; the image has been widely replicated.[1]
It was inspired by images of 1960s protests, such as Bruno Barbey photograph of the May 68 protests in France (e.g. his photograph of Boulevard Saint-Germain, 6th arrondissement, Paris, France. May 6, 1968).[2]
An earlier version was originally drawn by Banksy in 1999 and presented at his first exhibition in 2000.[3]
