It is signed in the lower right and titled and numbered in the lower left margin, all in pencil. The print is in excellent condition, not examined out of the frame. The frame is in very good condition with a few very tiny, virtually invisible nicks.
David Smith-Harrison’s approach to printmaking relies on drawing and alludes to past renaissance style architecture. He was awarded the Utah State Sterling Scholarship, before going on to be educated at the South Glamorgan Institute in Cardiff, Wales and at the University of Utah. He has participated in numerous shows, nationally and internationally. Juried exhibitions include Ashland University Printmaking Invitational Exhibition in Ohio, National Printmaking College of New Jersey, Trenton, Tokyo International Mini-Print Triennial, Japan, Society of American Graphic Artists at Federal Plaza, New York and US-UK Print Connection, Barbican Centre in London.
