* BILLY CONNOLLY CBE (SCOTTISH b. 1942), SCOTTY POSER XX
limited edition giclee print on paper, signed and numbered 12/295, titled and dated 2022 certificate verso, from the Born on a Rainy Day series
framed and under glass
image size 57cm x 77cm, overall size 65cm x 86cm
Provenance: Certificate verso by Washington Green Fine Art.
Note: The world-famous musician and comedian’s iconic artworks have no less impact than one of his legendary comedy sketches. The faceless figures possess an extraordinary self-awareness and humanity. Devoid of emotion or expression, their anonymity opens them up to individual interpretation, creating a unique bond with the viewer. Featured by The Times and documentaries including Billy Connolly: It's Been a Pleasure, his minimalist drawings have been described as 'poignant', 'funny' and 'enigmatic' by critics.
