The gampi was then laid down onto a layer of wet resin on the surface of the painting and covered so that it was sealed in the resin. The image of the wrestling firgures was drawn with a brush on top of thick layers of white lead and made to resemble marble, except for the heads; the heads in the statue were spuriously restored and O'Donoghue took the opportunity of replacing them in the painting with intimations of flesh and blood painting TECHNIQUES ---------- oil on canvas CATEGORIES ------ category: painting DATING ------ creation date: 2000 - 2000 creation date earliest: 2000 creation date latest: 2000 CREATORS -------- maker: O'Donoghue, Hughie DIMENSIONS ---------- dimension: Height units: mm value: 1805 dimension: Width units: mm value: 2070
