Hutton-Clarke Antiques is pleased to offer a fascinating classical oil painting on board, painted double-sided. On one side is the profile portrait of a male figure, while on the reverse is a skull, both encircled by a snake devouring its own tail — an ouroboros, rich in memento mori symbolism. This striking piece reflects the reminder of mortality and the eternal cycle of life and death. To the back is an old label inscribed J. C. Dent, adding further historical interest and provenance.
Height 20 cm, width 21 cm, depth 2 cm Customers are more than welcome to come and view and collect items from the unit in Winchcombe, Gloucestershire Gl54 5JE (appointment only). All items are checked and restored to a professional standard before leaving.
