About this work
Description
A frawing in Rita Simon's Traditional Linear style, depicting a face in a cubism style. It was produced by a man who spent time in a psychiatric hospital but also exhibited as an artist. He produced the work at home and later gave it to Rita Simon. This information has been taken from notes made during conversations between Rita Simon and Wellcome staff between 1995 and 1997.
The title and date have been taken from wording written on the verso.
