  Lot 189
 

BILL BLACKWOOD DA PDA
THE ROLEX BOTTICELLI

oil and acrylic on canvas, signed and dated 2003
framed

image size 126cm x 102cm, overall size 131cm x 106cm

Note: In our haste to catch the perfect pose both the model and I forgot she was still wearing her watch. I believe neither the watch or K, the model, are false. However I can only say with certainty that K isn't. A mild homage to Botticelli's Birth of Venus.

 

A condition report is offered as an indication of any issues visible to the naked eye. As none of our staff is a professional conservator or restorer, buyers must satisfy themselves in respect of condition and McTear’s can provide contact details of local professionals who can provide fully comprehensive expert reports, usually for a modest charge. The condition report does not form part of any contract between McTear's and the buyer, and all lots are offered "as is" in accordance with our Terms of Business available on our website.
