Purchased: McTear's, The Terry Howson Collection, 28 April 2013, lot 200.
Note: Collectors and Howson enthusiasts will be excited by the major retrospective “When the Apple Ripens: Peter Howson at 65" of the work of the artist taking place at the City Arts Centre, Edinburgh and organised by Museums & Galleries Edinburgh from May this year until the beginning of October, bringing together over 100 major works from his early years until the present time. Initial visitor numbers suggest that this exhibition is likely to set new records for a living artist in Scotland. The staging of this exhibition during (and beyond) the Edinburgh International Festival reflects the well documented and longstanding international interest in Peter Howson's work.
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.
