Lamenting martyrs from the Jacobite Rising, the figures are after the 1743 engravings by George Bickham. Riflemen Shaw and Farquar, along with Samuel and Malcolm McPherson were shot at The Tower on 18 July 1743. Piper Macdonnel was sent to Georgia, USA, as a convict for his part in the mutiny. It is believed that the two figures illustrated are Piper Macdonnel and Rifleman Shaw, but it is conceivable that it could well have been any of the other ‘Jacobian martyrs’
Mr. Brainwash (French 1966 -) PUP ART signed in pencil in the margin, artists fingerprint in ink in the margin screenprint 55.9 by 55.9cm Pup Art (Green) is a wonderful example of Mr. Brainwash's appopriations of recognisable images from popular culture and art history which he adjusts with his signature brand of irreverence. In this case it is a mid 1900s poster or a work illustrated in the same style.While the artist has screenprinted the Pup Art (Green) in black, white and green, he has created other editions of the same work where he has used the same accents in red, blue or yellow. It can be said that all of the adjustments that the artist has added to the original image have been included in one colour. The boy in the print holds a paintbrush in his hand, as he comforts a cowering girl with a protective hand around her shoulders. The paintbrush drips with the same green paint that the artist implies the boy has just applied to a dog. A pail of green paint rests near the subjects. The word ‘ART’ has been applied to the dog’s coat, pointing to the title of the piece. Pup Art is a pun on Pop Art, the art movement that began in the 1950s and used many of the same references to popular culture employed by Mr Brainwash.Mr Brainwash is a pseudonym of Thierry Guetta, who rose quickly to fame with the release of the Banksy directed documentary on street art Exit Through the Gift Shop (2010). Mr Brainwash was first introduced to street art by his cousin Invader and his production resembles fellow well-known contemporary street artists Banksy and Shepard Fairey. - S.D.Mr Brainwash, accessed January 21, 2020: https://artcollectorz.com/artists/artists-detail_id=36
