Footnotes

Two similar works Still life with a wrasse and Fish on a tiled table, both dated 1954, were gifted to the people of New Brunswick, Canada by Sir Max Aitken in 1959 and are currently in the collection of the Beaverbrook Art Gallery. These early works feature unusual juxtapositions of fish, crustacea and household objects, together with the artist's trademark impasto technique.
