This measures 28" x 34". The wood frame has some wear and can use touch up in various areas. See all photos. Sergeant Kennedy, who had been chasing the Kelly gang, has been fatally wounded. Kelly noted that he could not let him die a slow death at the mercy of the elements, so intended to finish the deed. Nolan felt that at such dramatic life and death moments, it is as if everything is heightened and the world becomes quite eerily still. Sergeant Kennedy is wide-eyed; Ned Kelly and his gang look glazed and disconnected, aware that all is far from right with the world. Two guns cross one another, amplifying the idea of the two ‘warring’ factions of police and the Kelly gang.
