Description

This work is painted in oils on hardboard as a triptych. The three sections have been framed collectively, and protected by glass. The composition is a dynamic, even kaleidoscopic, interleaving of multiple figures and scenes.

The work was donated by Reid Farmers Ltd in recognition of the company's centenary in 1978.
