Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There are some very faint and unobtrusive signs of handling and wear to all four edges and corner tips. Under extremely close inspection there are some minute specks of stray media, most notably to the top of the lighthouse. Under Ultraviolet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. Unframed

拍品資料及來源
"I don't think of the [photographic] source of a painting as second-hand [information]. For me it is first-hand. I am relating to the print of the image. I am not relating to where the image came from. The relationship I have to it has to be on a one-to-one basis. It is the image I am looking at. Not only that, but to reinforce this idea I can look at a photograph but I couldn't paint a photograph because the surface is invisible. It coalesces, so to speak, whereas printed ink on top of paper is more of a physical entity that I can feel as paint. The greatest difference between the Pop artists and me is that they wanted to get rid of touch and a sense of the hand-made. I make a hand-made painting from a ready-made." Malcolm Morley
