This stencil art of Audrey Hepburn holding a selfie stick is modeled after a famous shot of her with a long cigarette holder from Breakfast at Tiffany’s, which you can see here. I am seeing this stencil all over the East Village lately and am not sure if it is just one person doing the stenciling, or not, as I can’t locate any identifying tag. If you know the name of the artist, please leave it in the comments, thanks!
