Description: | RU s. in blue pencil b.r. "Alasdair Gray" CRE GRAY, Alasdair; (Scottish; b.1934) The lithograph is inscribed as follows; "That man is a fool who feels He must starve out of reach of the well served meal When good nourishing garbage lies in the gutter under his heels.
I have been told by the folk who have been
That in London the prostitutes are pretty and clean
I will pocket my bank-book, and go, and see what they mean
But ach, Glasgow, to me you have been much more
Than the body of any woman, the carcase of any whore
And I will return to you when my loins are sore" | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | FIGURE : MALE : FEMALE : NUDE : BUILDING : LITERATURE : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
