An image featured in LEAD, an ongoing exhibition of the photographs of Alejandro Guijarro at the London gallery Tristan Hoare.
Each image in the series by the London-based Spanish artist shows an Old Master painting from The Prado Museum, The Louvre or the National Gallery in London scanned under X-ray or ultraviolet light.
The blend of painterly representation and mechanical abstraction gives the composition of each photograph a strange, uncanny feel. Each work is reproduced to scale. This photograph is 49757 (St Gregory The Great), which is available at the exhibition for £5000.
