Post-sale context
Research, corrections and screen references added to this archive after the sale. The original catalogue text is above, unchanged.
There were two retrieved during wrap and made available for auction. The one sold in the first live auction Zak Adama Funeral Portrait was classified by production as the hero version.
Unfortunately, the same photo is used for both, thus compounding the error and introducing inaccuracy.
