Spring in Dartmoor (Dartmoor Ponies) - ALLEN W. SEABY

Medium: woodcut printed in colors

ALLEN W. SEABY
British, (1867-1953)

Woodcut printed in colors, 1930s, edition unknown; perhaps 50-100. 8 1/2 x 13 in. Initialed in the block, lower left, with the artist's monogram. Signed in pencil. Here we have a fine impression with probably the full margins. The condition is excellent. "Seaby, perhaps more so than his contemporaries, embodied in his woodcuts the spirit and dynamic composition of the Japanese print and fully exploited the texture of the brush stroke and blending of colour. Yet at the same time his work is quintessentially British, steeped in the countryside and wildlife..." See page 34 of Allen W. Seaby, Art and Nature, by Martin Andrews and Robert Gillmor, published by Two Rivers Press (2014).      SOLD
