Pitcairn's Portrait Gallery gets Modrian
Hi to all my loyal subjects, it is with great pride and jubilation that I announce to you all that I have on your behalf bought from the John Paul Getty Collection a Modrian to hang in our gallery!
Rejoice around the Islands for this is truly a great day. I purchased via a intermediary named E Bay for the princely sum of PI£125,000 (delivered in a cardboard tube!).
The piece if called Composition B in r(Ed), it will hang along side the two Beryl Cook pieces.
My good man Owen CBE has taken it upon himself, with my full admiration, to obtain for the gallery a commissioned work of the venerated, but slightly mad, Tracy Eminem, famous for such work as My Name is Stan, Slim Shady and Toy Soldiers.
