Lot 55
The Punishment of Judas 1971
oil on canvas
signed and dated lower right: David Boyd / 1971
86 x 76cm
Estimate $16,000 - $20,000
Dust has settled on the paint surface throughout - the work would benefit from a surface clean. The paint in the upper left corner has begun to separate and split, likely from the heaviness and impasto of the paint in this area, as it has dried over time.
The frame displays some scratches and signs of moisture and spotting. Overall size is 103 x 93cm x 5cm.
