4x000K, commonly referred to as "Victorious Reign" after the text at the top, is a droid reproduction of one of the original street murals that became a common site around certain districts of Coruscant City between early year 1 to mid year 3.
History
The name, 4x000K, was a reference to the "tag" that each painting received and is believed to be actually the signature of the artist, or artists. Because of the frequency of these "graffitis" it is believed that more than one artist was involved in their creation, possibly the well know pro-Imperial street gang "Red 66". By late-Year 1 the police warrant was called off of these previously-named "graffiti artists" as the murals were deemed to be "greatly inspirational". It is unknown why the gang stopped producing the murals, although it is speculated that a Rebel assassination unit may have been commissioned to eliminate the gang. The droid reproduction that now hangs in the Imperial Gallery stands a tribute to those artists and the patriotic street art that has now sadly begun to fade away.
