After Matout, Meynier and Leary – Oil on canvas, 365 x 885 cm
I was commissioned to paint this for a large internal curved wall. The image was designed around a central composition taken from a ceiling piece in the Greek Antiqities rooms in the Louvre, Paris. I added large sections to the left from part of a Charles Meynier ceiling piece and also additions to the right from other Louvre works and some of my own.
