Description: | Robert Tavener was born in London in 1920 and studied at Hornsey
College of Art. He was head of the printmaking department at
Eastbourne College of Art and Design from 1953 until 1980. This
print epitomises his style of producing bold, colourful prints.
It is infused with shape, pattern and texture all subject matter
deeply important to him. When asked to sum up his work he said,
"English countryside and English architecture".
The work was
purchased in the 1970s by Bromley Education Department and
formed part of a larger collection of art works which included
original prints and oil paintings from the 1960s and 70s. The
collection was used a teaching resource in schools. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Bromley Museum | Rights holder: | Robert Tavener | Subjects: | Art and Design | Temporal: | 1967 = 1977 | Source: | Bromley Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
