Artist: S HORNE SHEPHERD (1909-1993)

Title: 'RECLINING FEMALE NUDE' (unsigned but editioned linocut - mounted but not framed)  

Description: The Scottish painter and printmaker Horne Shepherd was born in Dundee and he studied at Dundee School of Art and then at the Glasgow School of Art in the late 1920s.  He came to London in the mid 1930s, and later exhibited at the Royal Society of British Artists, New English Art Club, London Group, Leicester Galleries, Redfern Gallery, Royal Scottish Academy and Society of Scottish Artists, etc.  He moved to West Sussex later in life.

We have three original prints and a drawing by the artist being listed today (please see also earlier item #0342).  The present print is a linocut measuring 11.7 x 8 inches image size on paper measuring 12.6 x 11.2 inches.  The print is editioned 20 out of a production of 33 prints but it is not pencil signed by the artist.  It is in excellent condition and is likely to date from the mid to late 1960s.  The provenance of this work is the artist's family and subsequently The Collectors Gallery, who mounted the print and had the artist's name inscribed on the mount...
