Charles Higgins ('PIC'), Scottish 1893-1980 - Untitled; ink on board, signed lower right 'Pic' and numbered on the reverse '21-', 20.2 x 42.8 cm Provenance: the Estate of the Artist Note: writer and painter Charles Higgins painted under the pseudonym of PIC and created some of the most extraordinary and enigmatic British paintings of the 20th century. Setting mythological and fantastical imagery within imagined landscapes, PIC's work transports the viewing through time and the imagination, demonstrating the same visionary zeal as figures such as Marc Chagall and Leonora Carrington. His work was exhibited in some of the most important British galleries of the 20th century, including, the Wertheim Gallery during the 1930s and Gimpel Fils during the 1940s and 50s and Jack Bilbo's celebrated The Modern Art Gallery in the 1940s.
