Robin Tanner
Full Moon, Robin Tanner signed artist etching

1977

About the Item

Full Moon Etching by Robin Tanner (1904-1988), signed by the artist in pencil. Very good, strong impression with excellent contrast. From the edition issued in 1977. Robin Tanner’s wonderful etching of Full Moon encapsulates the idyllic vision of rural England so loved by Samuel Palmer and The Ancients. One of Tanner's best known etched works, it ranks amongst the great Romantic images of British original printmaking. Robin Tanner was the last of the generation of English etchers to continue the traditions of Samuel Palmer, Graham Sutherland and F.L.M. Griggs. Tanner celebrated the beauty of the English countryside and its rustic settings in an idyllic pastoral manner unique in his time. His is the supremely crafted plate, developed through elaborate care and attention, and worked with a dense web of etched lines through which the light of the paper is allowed to sparkle. The density of this etched web is used to control the varying tones and create the final image. On cream wove paper with margins. 244mm by 187mm (platemark) 325mm by 265mm (sheet)
