ON THE LOOKOUT, A WATERCOLOUR BY CLAIRE HARKESS

* CLAIRE HARKESS RSW (SCOTTISH B. 1970 - ),
ON THE LOOKOUT
watercolour on paper, signed, dated 1998 label verso
28cm x 20cm
Mounted, framed and under glass.
Label verso: Gallery 41, Edinburgh.
Note: In 1998, Claire worked as Artist in Residence with The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland. While at Edinburgh Zoo she was filmed as part of the BBC "Ex-S" series and a fascinating documentary about her work was broadcast in November of that year. This work is a portrait of a specific animal at Edinburgh Zoo and it's likely that many Edinburgh residents and visitors to the Zoo will recognise this animal.

 

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.
