Item details

‘This portfolio must be one of the most all-embracing graphic explorations on a theme of landscape ever made by a single artist, for in addition to etching and screenprinting,  Tillyer added both lithography and woodcut to his repertoire, thus embracing all four graphic techniques. Proceeding from a unique understanding of his media, since his teaching duties had cover all facets of printmaking…’  Pat Gilmour  ‘William Tillyer. A Furnished Landscape’ Bernard Jacobson Ltd, 1974.
