* JOHN BYRNE RSA, BOY WITH MOTH unique hand coloured lithograph, signed, titled and numbered 2/30 48cm x 62cm Mounted, framed and under glass Note: Illustration of a boy holding a striped banner, with a moth on his chest, printed in black ink. Part of the edition was also hand coloured, which was the artist's original intention for the whole edition. The print is signed as 'Patrick', the persona the artist first adopted in 1967. Having been greatly interested in the work of primitive painters for a number of years, Byrne sent some of his own paintings to a London gallery with a letter stating that they had been created by his father, Patrick, who had received no formal art training. Although he did not maintain the deception for long, he nonetheless signed many of paintings this way in the 1960s and 1970s. Here he returns to the persona as well as to the format of a large, bulky figure that fills the picture frame and holds a banner.Printed and published by Glasgow Print Studio in 1994.
