About the Item

Duomo (Florence) Etching & aquatint , 1965-66 Signed, titled and annotated "artist's proof" (see photos) Edition: 100, this impression an artist's proof Reference: Silvie Turner. Julian Trevelyan Catalogue Raisonne of Prints.November 1, 2010. Reprint, Lund Humphries, 2010., No. 174 Provenance: Elizabeth Carrol Shearer, former President of the Print Club of Cleveland He moved to Paris to become an artist, enrolling at Atelier Dix-Sept, Stanley William Hayter's engraving school, where he learned etching. He worked alongside artists including Max Ernst, Oskar Kokoschka, Joan Miró and Pablo Picasso. In 1935, Trevelyan bought Durham Wharf, beside the River Thames in Hammersmith, London. This became his home and studio for the rest of his life and was a source of artistic inspiration to him. He became a confirmed Surrealist and exhibited at the International Surrealist Exhibition, held at the New Burlington Galleries in London. From 1950 to 1955, Trevelyan taught history of art and etching at the Chelsea School of Art. From 1955-63, Trevelyan worked at the Royal College of Art and became Head of the Etching Department. Because of his enthusiasm in his work and the desire to share it with others, Trevelyan became a highly influential teacher, with students including David Hockney, Ron Kitaj and Norman Ackroyd. He was an important leader of modern print techniques and today is regarded as a silent driving force behind the etching revolution of the 1960s. In 1969, he produced the Thames Suite, a collection of 12 views of the Thames from its upper reaches in Oxford and Henley-on-Thames down to the tidal stretches of London and the Estuary. Courtesy of Wikipedia Illustrated: Julian Trevelyan: Picture Language, 2013, Publisher: Lund Humphries, page 208 Note: Trevelyan did an oil painting of the same subject in 1965. Regarding Elizabeth Carroll Shearer: Elizabeth was a graduate of Swarthmore College, a noted print collector, past President and Treasurer of the Print Club of Cleveland, and active in DAR, Colonial Dames and Magna Carta Dames.
