Sybil Andrews, Racing, Prints by Bookroom Art Press

Description:

Linocut (1934). Printed from four blocks in Chinese Orange; Spectrum Red; Viridian and Chinese Blue. Original size: 26.1 x 34.4cm. The geometry in this print creates a sense of speed, and, as in a blur, everything seems unified: the horses heads become like the track they race upon, their reigns like the arms of the riders who race them. (Collectors of Andrews’ prints will recognise the similarity between this and the Andrew Power Epsom Derby lithograph Epsom Summer Meeting, 1933).
