LONDON.- An exceptional late still life by Scottish Colourist,
George Leslie Hunter, (est £100,000 – 150,000) is the star lot in this year’s
annual Scottish sale (17 through 20 August inclusive). Entitled simply, ‘Still
Life’, it showcases the full range of Hunter’s talents, and features his keynote
motifs of pink roses, goblet, fruit, fabric and drapery. “The meticulous
composition is carefully worked yet retains the freshness and painterly panache
evident in his best work,” commented Bonhams Head of Pictures in Edinburgh,
Chris Brickley.
