What does this mean?

Thank you for contacting Mearto.

This is a large painting picturing an angel and a peace message. The medium appears to be airbrush and/or spray paint. I have not been able to find any other works by this artist. I have also not located any works that include ‘fear trade.’ Is it a word play on fair trade?

The style is influenced by street art of the past few decades. The Fair Market Value of an original painting like this is between $100 and $200.
