Swings - Framed Giclée print by Ethel Spowers

This is the framed version of Swings. The artwork is framed in a natural, unfinished solid oak profile with UV-filtering glazing and acid-free, conservation-grade mount matched to the colour of the paper.

Linocut (c. 1932) Printed from 4 blocks: yellow ochre; viridian; reddish brown; cobalt blue. This print is evocative of the simple joy of the swing. There is no sentimentality, no intended or instructional moral, only the depicted pleasure of rollicking movement. And the colours are those as influenced by Flight and the Grosvenor School: this is not an ‘accurate’ colour portrayal, it is colour as perceived by the empathic artist very clearly enjoying by proxy the activity perceived.

This print is authorised for publication by the artist's Estate and has a seal of authenticity embossed onto the white paper margin. It is from a limited edition of 850 and is hand-numbered and hand-embossed. This print has a typed caption running along its paper border. The caption indicates permission and authorisation from the artist's Estate, and from the museum or gallery holding the work. The caption will be concealed by a mount when the print is framed.
