Lot 84

SIDNEY NOLAN (1917-1992)
Bird 1969
mixed media on paper
signed lower centre: nolan
inscribed verso: 18 June 69 Nolan
30 x 25cm

Estimate $2,000 - $3,000

Sold for $3,200

Paper in sound condition with no creases or holes. The ripolin pigment is not consistent throughout the work. The oil in the paint has likely prevented the pigment from adhering in numerous places and so has the appearance of "losses" in specific areas, mostly where the brush would have last left the paper surface thereby leaving behind the oil.
Well framed. Overall size: 58 x 43cm
