John Nash RA - Harvesting - Schools Print - 20th Century British lithograph

1950

About the Item

JOHN NASH, RA (1893-1977) Harvesting Lithograph Framed 49 by 75 cm., 19 ¼ by 29 ½ in. (frame size 65 by 91.5 cm., 25 ½ by 35 ½ in.) On the advice of his older brother, the artist Paul Nash, John Nash avoided art school as a formal art training. In the years immediately before the Great War, he established his artistic reputation as a printmaker with the progressive London Group and Camden Town Group of artists. Following the war, when he served as was an Official War Artist, he resumed his print making being an accomplished wood engraver and lithographer, becoming a founder member of the Society of Wood Engravers. From 1924 to 1929 he taught at the Ruskin School of Art in Oxford, and from 1934 to 1940 taught at the Design School at the Royal College of Art. In 1951 he was elected a member of the Royal Academy. Towards the end of the Second World War Brenda Rawnsley had the idea of bringing contemporary art to young children who might not otherwise have the opportunity. She set up School Prints Ltd and commissioned several of the most important living artists for her scheme. The printing was undertaken by the Baynard Press with stones or zinc plates drawn by the artists in no more than six colours. Nash produced two prints for the scheme: Harvesting and Window Plants.

Conversation
By Aldo Luongo
Located in San Francisco, CA
This artwork titled "Conversation" 1988 is a color lithograph on Arches paper by noted Italian/Argentinian artist Aldo Luongo, b.1941. It is hand signed and numbered 103/275 in pencil by the artist. The image size is 20 x 25 inches, sheet size is 25 x 29 inches. It is in excellent condition. About the artist: Aldo Luongo was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, of Italian heritage. Since as far back as he can remember, Luongo had two great passions: art and soccer. Shortly after his graduation from the Academy of Fine Arts in Buenos Aires, Luongo came to the U.S. to play professional soccer for the New York Generals. After his athletic career was cut short due to an injury, he arrived in New York City with a dream to pursue his artwork full time. In the 70’s, he had his first major success with multiple reproductions of his black & white drawings. Not only were these prints released to great critical acclaim, they were a huge commercial success as well (hundreds of thousands of pieces sold within several years). Aldo had put himself on the map as a major international artist. Aldo Luongo has continued his reign at the top of the contemporary art world for almost four decades – a distinction that puts him in a class of his own. He has received numerous awards and honors, including being named a 3-time official Olympic Artist (Summer 1988, Summer 1996, and Winter 2002); an official World Cup Artist (1998); an official U.S. Women’s World Cup Artist (1999); and the 1999 Sports Artist of the Year (U.S. Sports Museum). He also has twice been chosen to paint eggs for the White House Easter Egg Hunt which now reside in the Smithsonian Institute.
