A Yorkshire farmer who, five years ago, let a rock band and a graffiti artist on to his land for a photoshoot is to reap benefits this month.
Farm buildings belonging to Stephen Walmesley were used as the backdrop for photographs of Blur standing in front of a new work by Banksy. Now that artwork is being auctioned, with an estimated value of ยฃ30,000-ยฃ50,000. The section of wall that bore Banksy's image of a smashed window and a TV will be sold by Bloomsbury Auctions in London on 26 June.
The photographs, taken by Claudia Janke, were used for the launch edition of Observer Music Monthly. The cover showed the band in front of an outhouse wall.
