Description: | Valerie Thornton was born in London in 1931. She studied at
Regent Street Polytechnic School of Art, London before moving
to Paris and then New York. Architectural themes dominate her
work as in this etching of a landscape of rooftops. She has used
muted colours to allow the shapes and patterns of the
architecture to dominate the work.
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: | Valerie Thornton | Subjects: | Art and Design | Temporal: | 1975 | Source: | Bromley Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
