About the Item
Signed lower right, 'Mark S' for Mark Shepherd (English, 20th century) and dated 1995. Titled on the original Royal Academy exhibition label, verso.
This figural work by Shepherd was exhibited at the 1995 Summer Exhibition of London's Royal Academy and retains the original artist-created frame bearing the title in gothic lettering.
The painting, titled 'Fancy Bringing That Thing on the Tube, after Bosch', transposes Bosch’s medieval grotesques onto the London Underground, fusing satire with painterly invention and posing implicit moral questions concerning the nature of compassion and contemporary social alienation.
