The artwork by John Oatway depicts a skinned cow in a rural setting. It measures 69 cm x 49.5 cm. The image is described as an archival print on rag paper, number 1 of 15 and is signed in the lower right hand corner. The photograph is unframed.
I bought the art work at a Stephan Welz &Co auction in 2015. It is a conversation piece and certainly something very different. It will be suitable for an office or a very modern home.
