IRRITARE CANEM NOLI DORMIRE VOLENTEM - Let Sleeping Dogs Lie
Holly Frean, 2025 (signed on the reverse)
Original painting in oil and gold on lead base
12.5 x 18.5 x 2 cm
This medievally-inspired original gold and oil painting on lead 'flag' is a homage to the artist's dog, Bluebell the greyhound. It can be hung on the wall using looped hooks on the reverse, or carefully manipulated to stand alone on a shelf. For collectors, dog lovers and philosophers alike, this is a rare chance to acquire a single small Frean - and a reminder if needed to let sleeping dogs lie - to leave things alone if they're currently calm...
