Gerald Anthony Coles Art

English, 1929-2004

Gerald Anthony Coles was an English painter, printmaker and stained glass designer, born in Luton, Bedfordshire, in 1929. A talented portraitist, he expertly captures mood and emotion, with an understated yet elegant understanding of the human form. Favoring the dark and the sensual, he uses dark and largely monochromatic tones and experiments with a variety of media and substrate, including woodcut, oil/acrylics and monotypes. His works are represented in the British Museum collection.

Flora Schofield, Chicago Block Print Calendar, 1942, mid-century

Located in New York, NY

As this is a calendar for 1942, the prints were no doubt made in 1941. All images are wood engravings by members of the Chicago Society of Artists. With essay by Ernest F. Detterer, Custodian, Newberry Library, Chicago. The outside measurements are 8 1/2 x 11 x 1 inches. The cover image and most of the additional works are 5 x 7 inches. The edition was planned for 2000 copies but it is extremely unlikely that that number was ever printed and this item is now scarce. There is one image per week. The stamp 'Labor (?) World Press Printers, 508 S. Kedzie Avenue, Chicago,' is on the inside cover. The first word is partly obliterated. Among the additional artists are Ethel Spears (cover image), Kathleen Blackshear, Fritizi Brod, Elise Donaldson, Frances Foy, Rowena Fry...
