Marjorie Cox (1915-2003) - 1972 Pastel Portrait of Candy

Description

A delightful study of a terrier by the notable pet portraitist Marjorie Cox. The artist's technique is masterly, layering tones in order to produce a vivid and arresting realist portrait. She utilises the substrate in order to enhance texture and form, alongside fine detailing in the whiskers and eyes, producing a glassy effect that is highly skilled in this medium. Inscribed with the name 'Candy'. Signed and dated. On laid.

Condition

Overall the condition is very good. With some minor discolouration and minor movement to the fragile medium. Overall in very good condition.
