Description

A fun and charmingly naive etching in colour by the notable British printmaker, Graham Clarke. This jolly triptych shows the carpenter's cottage and workshop of "Joe," at night, with garden scenes on either side. The middle panel has been signed and inscribed and marked as an artist's proof. The two side panels have been initialed. The triptych has been attractively presented in a burr wood frame with rounded profile and finished with a crisp triple arched window mount. On wove.

Artist Biography

Born in 1941, printmaker Graham Clarke was educated at Beckenham Art School, and then at the Royal College of Art where he specialised in illustration and printmaking, and pursued his interest in calligraphy. With encouragement from Edward Bawden, Clarke began refining an individual aesthetic, printing traditional landscapes marked by a sense of locality and genre. Graduating in 1964, he benefited from the print boom of the decade and, with commissions from Editions Alecto and London Transport Publicity Department a promising career was launched. The publication in 1969 of his first hand-printed "livre d'artiste", Balyn and Balan won recognition from the most influential patron and connoisseur of the day, Kenneth Clark.
