About the Item
Jonathan Higgins' contemporary metalpoint drawing on blue-tinted acrylic ground on paper was executed in silver and brass. Metalpoint is a Renaissance drawing technique that was used before the advent of the graphite pencil: the drawing is made with a metal wire held in a stylus, on a receptive surface on which traces of metal are left behind. Silver is traditionally used with this technique, though other soft metals can be used. The drawing surface can be paper, board, wood, etc. and is prepared with white or tinted gesso or gouache. Most metals used in metalpoint oxidize, which changes the tone and contrast of the drawing. This tarnishing/transformation continues gradually over time depending on environmental conditions. An archival fixative has been applied to the surface of Higgins' drawing which will arrest the process of oxidation. Higgins' metalpoint drawings are included in the book "Silverpoint and Metalpoint Drawing: A Complete Guide To The Medium", published by Routledge in 2019.
The drawing is archivally mounted to museum board and floated within a 4-ply window mat. The exterior dimensions of the mat are 20" x 20" and it can be put into a frame with the same interior dimensions.
