Artist: JOHN BRUNSDON, RE, ARCA (born 1933)

Title: 'WINTER' (framed etching with aquatint)

Description:  John Brunsdon is widely acknowledged as being one of Britain's finest contemporary printmakers. His work is held in many public collections, including the Tate Gallery, Victoria & Albert Museum, and the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

Brunsdon's earlier works of the 1960s were markedly abstract in form and were influenced by the American abstract expressionists.  To use his own words his prints from this period 'evoke an inner world and spiritual awakening'.  These early works are now scarce and are much collected.

We are pleased to offer 'Winter' an original etching with aquatint which dates from 1966.  The print measures about 17.7 x 23.5 inches image size, and is pencil signed, titled and numbered 13 of 50.  It is in very good condition save for some minor time staining where the mount abuts the print.  The etching has deckle edges and full margins.  This print was at one time in the collection of the leading dealers William Weston Gallery of Albemarle Street, London W1 (their label is attached to the backboard) and it was framed by Framery Ltd of Blandford Street, W1.  The frame is silvered and in quite good condition although there are some losses which do not really detract...
