Provenance: Private Collection acquired directly from the artist

In Prize Fight, Edith Rimmington deals with our habitually prejudiced concept of man and animal in a deeply ironic way, comparing the phrenologist approach of man's mind with that of a butcher or slaughterhouse in dealing with an oxens body. Even the background space of this image is 'quartered' accordingly.
