Tansey is one of the most brilliant and brilliantly comic artists working today.
This painting is based on Sidney Paget's classic Victorian illustration depicting Sherlock Holmes' battle with Professor Moriarty above Reichenbach Falls - except that in this case, the cliffs consist of deconstructed text.
