"This cover is quite simply another version of my tromple l'oeil painting for The Collector by John Fowles. The background is from a seventeenth century drawing showing Harlequin and Columbine. I tried in this one to convey the contrast between the hard cold brutality of the dark gunmetal with the velvety softness of the Death's Head Hawk moth. The revolver was borrowed from a friend and featured in several of my cover paintings." - Tom Adams.
Taken from the original artwork of the Agatha Christie book cover.
Signed, dated, and numbered limited edition print.
One of the few remaining prints from the edition of 300, signed in pencil by Tom Adams.
