Brian Needham (Contemporary), oil on stretched canvas. This detailed wildlife study depicts a cheetah in repose atop a textured, ochre-coloured mound. The composition utilizes meticulous, fine brushwork to define the intricate spotting and tactile quality of the animal’s coat, which is set against an atmospheric and muted background of interlocking, leafless trees. The work is signed and dated “© BRIAN NEEDHAM ’21” in the lower right quadrant. It is housed in a modern, thin-profile silver-toned metal frame. 40.6 x 40.6 cm


Condition report:

The painted surface is in excellent condition, exhibiting no visible craquelure, paint loss, or signs of restoration. The canvas is taut and appears to be in its original state. The modern metal frame shows minor surface scuffing along the top edge but remains structurally sound.
