About the Item

The Dancer (Anaïs). 1925. Etching. Fletcher catalog 52 state viii. 9 3/4 x 6 1/16 (sheet 14 1/4 x 10 1/2). Edition 107. An extremely rich proof printed on cream 'MADE IN ENGLAND' cream laid paper.

Signed in pencil and annotated "1st state G.L.B." in pencil. The model is the artist's first wife, Anaïs Folin. Born in Birmingham, the artist attended the Birmingham School of Art from the age of 12. Regarded as a 'young Botticelli' his drawing skills won him a gold medal and scholarship at the Royal Academy Schools in 1913. He studied in England, France and Italy, where he was profoundly influenced by Piero Della Francesca, Botticelli and Da Vinci. During the 1920s Brockhurst became an etcher, focusing primarily on female portraits and using his wife as his model. Coolness, technical perfection, and overt classicism mark both his printmaking style and his painting manner
