One of the many Richard Weston strizzatte images using a technique originated by Rennaisance painters - but here we have a 'design' that is totally different to all the others here despite the same technique being used, albeit with more pastel paints.
The image has been created by squeezing (which is what strizzatte means in Italian) acrylic paints between glass sheets, then scanning them at high resolution, so that what you are seeing is a tiny fraction of paints.
It is 10" (25cms) in diameter, but more than makes up for its 'modest' size, by virtue of its visual imapct.
As you will have realised, this is a mock up, and our apologies for not yet having the actual product photographed.
