About MeTwo black and white photographs printed two-sided onto one piece of matt paper. One side depicts the Finlay work "Kennst Du Das Land Wo Die Zitronen Blühn" (Knowst Thou the Land Where Only Cannons Grow) installed in a garden, the other side depicts two identical busts (probably also Finlay works) installed in a gallery. This photograph is part of an archive donated by Joyce Laing, OBE. Ian Hamilton Finlay was a personal friend.
