_Bob's Capon_
©2001 (calendar year two thousand+one) Isaac Falconer/Dr Saku Gunasegaram
36"(thirty-six inches) x 24" (twenty-four inches)
acrylics and gold ink on hand-made Japanese rice paper of irregular "live-edge" dimensions

COMMISSIONED (inadvertently) by Bob Zagers, Clearwater Beach, Florida, USA.
 Bob merely requested a print or poster of the original COMMISSIONED by [City of Venice, Italy, The European UNION]
Venetian restauranteur proprietario (proprietor in American-English) Mr (signore) Lucianor Rota painting     Antico Capon   
-which he [Bob Zagers] saw hanging in     Venice, Italy, in the Campo Santa Margheria, sestiere di Dorosoduro, Venice, Italy, The European UNION     .

Therefore this artist Isaac Falconer/Dr Saku Gunasegaram made him [Bob Zagers] the above-featured painting-on-Japanese rice paper in direct response to his
[Bob Zagers'] statement that some day he "hoped" to gain a keener appreciation "for" "cutting edge" "avant garde" "abstract" art. 
Since it is this artist's "considered" "professional" opinion that it is much easier for art-appreciators-to-be/art-aficionados-to-be
to gain a keener appreciation for original art in the presence of an "original," this artist Isaac Falconer/Dr Saku Gunasegaram
"responded" to Bob Zagers' request by painting
_Bob's Capon_
©2001 (calendar year two thousand+one) Isaac Falconer/Dr Saku Gunasegaram
36" (thirty-six inches) x 24" (twenty-four inches)
acrylics and gold ink on hand-made Japanese rice paper~
rather than with
a "reproduction" and/or "copy" of a poster/print of the original     Antico Capon     .

This image is a photograph with missing "details"~
because of its low level of resolution~but it provides some
idea of the variations in colour and texture in the original painting.
Such paintings on rice paper are extremely difficult to "capture"
 in the absence of digital cameras~as "absence" "happened" in this particular case.
