Mona Lisa With Gun Bomb Love, also known as Bomb Hugger or Bomb Girl, is an early Banksy screenprint. The image of a girl embracing a deadly weapon has become iconic, exploring the dichotomy of love and war – a subject the artist has explored in a number of works. The first version was created as a mural in East London in 2001 and featured in Banksy's book Banging Your Head Against a Brick Wall. Banksy is thought to have been born in Bristol, England around 1974. He rose to provocative, stencilled pieces in the late 1990s. Banksy is the subject of a 2010 documentary, Exit Through the Gift Shop, which explores the relationship between commercial and street art.
