He was known for his portraits of clowns, of which he said, ‘I don’t just paint the clown, I paint the soul.’ The painting is presented in a beautiful wooden frame with black and gold paint, and a canvas wrapped bevel to edge. Painting is signed to the bottom right hand corner and double signed on the verso with the year 1969.
