About the Item

The Surgeon’s Photograph by Mychael Barratt [2022] limited_edition and hand signed by the artist Woodcut Print on Paper Edition number of 50 Image size: H:50 cm x W:49 cm Complete Size of Unframed Work: H:64 cm x W:61 cm x D:0.1cm Sold Unframed Please note that insitu images are purely an indication of how a piece may look In this woodcut print by Mychael Barratt ‘The Surgeon’s Photograph’, has been made especially for his solo show in Inverness and it shows the staging of an infamous photograph from 1934 purporting to show the Loch Ness monster. A highly respected surgeon, Colonel Robert Wilson, came forward with a photograph that appeared to show a sea serpent rising from the water. It was in fact a toy submarine fitted with a sea serpent head, as was finally admitted by one of the hoaxers, Christian Spurling, in 1994 shortly before he died at the age of 90. A wonderful story recreated in this woodcut image by Mychael Barratt.
