Artist:
Guy Malet
Title:
'Knaresborough' (original wood engraving, framed ) Description:
Guy Seymour Warre Malet, RBA, SWE
(1900-73) was known primarily as a landscape and figure
engraver but he was also an accomplished painter in oil
and watercolour. He
studied at the London School of Art
under Eastman and Hassall, and at the
Grosvenor
School of Art under Iain MacNab. Malet exhibited at the
Royal Academy,
Royal Society of British Artists, Society of Wood
Engravers, New English Art Club, in the provinces and
abroad. He was elected RBA 1936,
SWE 1947, Coventry and Warwick Society of Artists 1945,
and a member of the Society of
Artist Printmakers. His work is represented in several
public collections.
Malet lived in London, then at
Leamington Spa during the war years, later at Seaford in
Sussex and finally in Ditchling.
The present work is an original wood engraving of
Knaresborough. It measures about 11 x 7 inches image
size, and is housed in a relatively good quality modern
wooden frame. The engraving is in good condition save
for some minor creasing. The work has the estate
stamped signature, which we believe was applied after
Malet's death by his artistic executor. An impression
of this engraving was exhibited at the Royal Academy in
1943...
