Strangely I've never seen that one. Thanks.

Do you know his work?

Yup. Rather well and know people with a canvas or two but never saw this.

We had one canvas when I was growing up. I think my sister has it now.

Awesome. I love his stuff. Though I think he's the kind of artists who would benefit from a solidly academic retrospective.

I like his work. I think I was 7 or 8 when we got the painting, so it opened my eyes. Don't know if he was able to take it further

So your family has that one? Amazing. I heard the family was doing a catalogue raisonné. Wonder what happened.

My family has one. (not sure what you mean by "that one" because it isn't the Deir Ez Zor one).

It's a seated woman being shown a mirror by three other women (ghost-like).
