Original Edmund Blampied drypoint.
Outstanding early proof impression with rich drypoint burr, from the only edition of 100 signed and numbered proofs.
Morning Gossip is one of the best known of all of Edmund Blampied’s famous Jersey scenes, portraying the social side of everyday peasant life as remembered from his youth. Here, Edmund Blampied’s art is at its most individual and expressive, capturing the artist’s unique insight into the scene with exceptional dexterity of the drypoint needle. It is for works such as this that Edmund Blampied remains amongst the most sought-after of all of the printmakers of the British Etching Revival.
On cream laid paper, watermarked J Whatman, with full margins and deckle edge. Very fine condition. |
