Artist: Bernard Cheese          

Title: Radley College (original signed lithograph - framed)    

Description: Bernard Cheese, RE (born 1925) is one of Britain's best known and respected printmakers.  He studied at the Royal College of Art in London 1947/50, and then taught printmaking at St Martin's School of Art and Design before becoming Senior Lecturer at Goldsmith's College, London.  He now lives and works near Colchester, and has many of his prints in both public and private collections including the Contemporary Art Society and the Victoria and Albert Museum.

This framed lithograph measures about 20.5 x 27.2 inches image size and about 30 x 36.7 inches in its frame. It is part of the Public Schools Series and another example of this lithograph is held in the Government Art Collection.  The work is pencil signed and dated 1964, titled 'Radley College' lower left, and numbered 17 from an edition of 100 prints. Radley College is situated about 5 miles south of Oxford.  The print is housed in what we think is the original frame, which is cream in colour with a mount in light grey.  Although we have not examined the lithograph out of the frame, it appears to be in very good condition for its age, with no foxing, browning, tears in the paper or other faults. The frame is adequate and serviceable but it does have some losses consistent with age...
