An ancient French mill wheel is the subject of this intricate wood engraving. This piece isolates the object from its functional, industrial setting, and in doing so simply pays homage to the craft and skill evident in this beautiful artefact.
This print is mounted, framed and glazed. Unframed prints from the edition are also available via Artfinder.
Wood engraving is a traditional form of fine art printmaking. The artist uses specialised tools to create the image in relief (and reverse) on the end grain of a block of hardwood - usually boxwood - by removing the 'white' parts of the image. This technique is painstaking and highly technical, and allows for the creation of exquisitely detailed works. Rebecca's wood engravings have been exhibited in the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, with the Society of Wood Engravers, and in galleries across the world from Japan to the USA.
