Original artwork description:

Probably my favourite piece from 2018.
Milan, June 30, 2018 - only fools and Englishmen were out in the midday sun on this day and I was one of them! It was 36° in the shade and the tarmac was melting. I went to Largo Cairoli (a central square) on this particular day for a purpose.
I wanted to get a decent shot of the image I had driven past the previous evening!
A black and white version of the resulting photograph, including Armani's colossal billboard, has been printed onto canvas and used as a backdrop to this painting of marathon runners in the Stramilano marathon.
I love the way the old town opens up to accept the ultra modern image of fashion and the physical fitness challenges of today's culture and some areas have been left black/white to accentuate this.
Definitely a statement piece for any wall.
The painting continues around the borders and a dog tooth brass hook has been added to the back for immediate hanging.
