About the Item

Elisabeth (Anaïs) also called The London Caster Girl. 1922. Etching. Fletcher catalog 32 state x. 5 5/8 x 4 1/4 (sheet 11 1/2 x 9). Edition 76 (total 94 impressions). A rich impression with plate tone, printed on '[F J Hea]d & Co' cream laid paper. Signed in pencil. Housed in a 20 x 16-inch archival mat, suitable for framing. This is a striking portrait of Brockhurst's first wife, Anaïs Folin. During the 1920's 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. 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.
