See lot 40 for biographical information on Julian Hartnoll
Lots 41 - 42 appear to reference Francis Newton Souza's autobiographical essay, Nirvana of a Maggot, originally published in Encounter Magazine, 1955 and reprinted in Words and Lines, 1959. Accompanying this essay were a number of illustrations, two of which bear remarkable similarity to the these works, both executed in the same year as the publication. A poem on the title page of Words and Lines aptly describes the physiognomy of lot 41, the Untitled (Head) while the imagery of the insect (lot 42) repeatedly surfaces in the Maggot text with a comparable drawing published on page 12.
