IFPDA Print Fair: New York

27 - 30 October 2022

Once again Osborne Samuel return with a collection of Modern British prints. Prints include Edward Wadsworth’s exceptional Vorticist woodcut of 1914 titled ‘Harbour of Flushing’ and CRW Nevinson mezzotint ‘From an Office Window, 1918’ and his masterpiece and the largest of his lithographs ‘Wet Evening on Street, 1919’. We have specialised in the avant-garde linocuts of the Grosvenor School of Modern Art made during the 1920s and 30s by Claude Flight and his followers since the early 1980s. We have pioneered the promotion of these wonderful prints each year at the Fine Prints Fair since the inception of the fair back in 1987. This year we bring a group of works by Flight, Sybil Andrews, Cyril Power and Lill Tschudi. Last fall many of these prints were included in the exhibition ‘Modern Times – British Prints 1913-1939’ of Leslie and Johanna Garfield gift to the Met. We will also be including contemporary prints we specialise in amongst which are three versions of William Kentridge’s ‘Sleeper’ series of monumental etchings, Grayson Perry’s ‘Map of Nowhere’ and David Hockney’s iconic ‘Pretty Tulips’ of 1969.
