Artist:
ERIK SMITH (1914-1973)
Title: HARBOUR SCENE (PROBABLY 'SPANISH
HARBOUR' 1957) Description:
Erik Smith was a
printmaker and painter who studied at the Royal College
of Art either side of the Second War. He exhibited on
many occasions at the Royal Academy, Royal Society of
Watercolour Painters, New English Art Club etc, and is
represented in the V&A, Ashmolean Museum, and the South
London Art Gallery.
This unframed print is an
original etching and aquatint, measuring about 9.8 x
12.8 inches image size. It is pencil signed and it is
dated (we think for 1957). The work is not titled but
it may well be 'Spanish Harbour', an example of which
was shown at the RA in 1957. The print has been trimmed
to three of the margins, and has some tape residue to
the lower edge and some very light foxing throughout.
Nevertheless it is a scarce and attractive image by a
very good printmaker...
