§ Sax Shaw (Scottish, 1919-2000) King David - a study for a cartoon possible partial signature lower right, inscribed ""David Cartoon"" to the reverse oil on canvas, rolled and unframed Provenance: From an Edinburgh textile Mill, thus possibly a design for a rug or wall hanging. The Sax Shaw appears to be a cartoon ( design ) for a textile, possibly a rug or wall hanging, hence its logical connection to it being left at a textile mill, although we do not know if it was ever produced or not, and is very similar to one shown as an example of the artist`s work, on the web page giving details of his Edinburgh Exhibition http://saxshaw.com/exhibition-catalogue/ ( CLICK HEADER TAB `exhibition catalogue ), then it is picture no` 12. It is unknown whether the design was ever produced in a textile. Sax Shaw designed stained-glass windows which feature in churches all over Scotland; produced modern British tapestry at the Dovecote studio, and became a mentor to generations of students at Edinburgh and Glasgow schools of art. Has been rolled up. Unframed.
