At about 70 cm wide, it holds a wall above a sofa or sideboard on its own.

The painter

Boaz Dor paints people in flat, bright colour with hand-drawn black outlines and a straight face. Every figure here has its own costume and its own mood, and the longer you look the more you find.

Sound Check is a one-of-a-kind original, not a print. It's sold on his behalf by his son in Toronto.
