A Better Win

Multi-colour landscape oriented oil painting on canvas, celebrating Collingwood Football Club defeating Essendon Football Club in the 1990 AFL Grand Final. The image shows the Melbourne Cricket Ground, with green grass oval in lower third, pavilion and crowd in middle third, and sky in upper. There are magpies dominating the sky, which display newspaper cut-out faces of Collingwood footballers. On the field are small black figures in the shape of aeroplanes, which have a red stripe across their centre.
