Portrait by Colin McCahon

Artwork Detail

'Portrait is one of a series which numbered somewhere between sixty to eighty drawings I did that were brought into existence with the idea of turning them into silk-screen prints. This head was inspired by somebody I knew who had been a London showgirl…'.
