I love this, contemporary narrative painting at its best. The tallness of the gates leads us up to the iconic sculptures at the top of the picture, and we travel up there as she taps her foot, impatient. Do you know ‘The Innocent Eye-test’? I use it in an essay on my own blog – https://anthonyhowelljournal.com/2012/09/28/the-picture-within-the-picture/

How can I get a high-resolution image of this painting and get permission to use it in a forthcoming book?

You could try to contact the artist’s representatives. I think the Gagosian is one of the galleries that shows his work. You might try calling them.
