Object Description
Original Oil on canvas by Modern British artist Robert Duckworth Greenham.
A strong image this, deeply retro in a 70s Bond girl way. Greenham was an unusual painter in that his style remained completely consistent for his entire career, apart from the fashion of the sitter this would be impossible to date next to his work from the 1930s onwards. His very stylized portraits have a faintly celluloid feel about them, as if they were made for film posters. Their graphic quality is enhanced by an acid palette that recalls the Zinkeisen sisters’ work around the same time.
