Jean Dufy More Prints
French, 1888-1964
Jean Dufy was a French Art Deco artist, best known for his colourful, melodic depictions of post-war Parisian society. Working to capture everyday life, from concert halls and circuses to country landscapes and busy Parisian streets, Dufy focused on recreating the feeling and impression of a scene, rather than individual details.
In 1906, Dufy visited the exhibition ‘Cercle de l’Art Moderne’ in La Havre, and it was this show that eventually inspired him to pursue an artistic career. The exhibit, one of Dufy’s first exposures to Modern Art, crucially shaped his approach to art and introduced him to artists such as Picasso and Matisse.
While he had no formal training, his older brother was well-known French Fauvist Raoul Dufy, who served as his artistic mentor.
In January 1914, Dufy launched his artistic career, holding his first show at Galerie Berthe Weil. He returned to Paris after the war and settled in the Montmartre district of Paris, moving next door to artist George Braque, who encouraged Dufy to experiment with Cubism.
His personal painting style developed into a vibrant fusion of Post-Impressionism with a loose decorative approach to colour and line, which he achieved from his work in porcelain design.
For almost 30 years, Dufy worked for Limoge porcelain manufacturer Theodore Haviland, hand-painting decorative designs of animals and flowers. At the 1925 L’exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs he was awarded a gold medal for designing the service ‘Châteaux de France’.
Dufy participated in many exhibitions, including the Salon d’Automne, which reflected the popularity of jazz music and the art of Parisian culture after the war.
Dufy would return to his native Normandy throughout his life and spent long stretches of time in the south of France. The dynamism of these landscapes and cityscapes - particularly noticeable in the street scene Route de Rives (Touraine)- are so cleverly captured due to Dufy’s uniquely musical and distinctive Post-Impressionistic style.to

FRANK W. BENSON (1862-1951)
Frank Weston Benson, well known for his American impressionist paintings, also produced an incredible body of prints - etchings, drypoints, and a few lithographs. Born and raised on the North Shore of Massachusetts, Benson, a natural outdoorsman, grew up sailing, fishing, and hunting. From a young age, he was fascinated with drawing and birding – this keen interest continued throughout his life.
His first art instruction was with Otto Grundman at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and then in 1883 in Paris at the Academie Julian where he studied the rigorous ‘ecole des beaux arts’ approach to drawing and painting for two years.
During the early 1880’s Seymour Haden visited Boston giving a series of lectures on etching. This introduction to the European etching...

Artist Motivation - Mandela, Former South African President, Inspirational Words
By Nelson Mandela
Located in Knowle Lane, Cranleigh
Nelson Mandela, Artist's Motivation, Signed Limited Edition Lithograph
Many people are unaware that Nelson Mandela turned his hand to art in his 80's as a way of leaving a legacy for his family. He spent time with an art tutor and learnt to draw. In 2002, when creating the The Motivation print, he told Anna and Laura from Belgravia Gallery of his desire to become a full time artist when he retired.
This artwork is a handwritten Artist’s Motivation by Nelson Mandela and reads:
“Today when I look at Robben Island I see it as a celebration of the struggle and a symbol of the finest qualities of the human spirit, rather than as a monument to the brutal tyranny and oppression of apartheid.
Robben Island is a place where courage endured in the face of endless hardship, a place where people kept on believing when it seemed their dreams were hopeless and a place where wisdom and determination overcame fear and human frailty.
It is true that Robben Island was once a place of darkness, but out of that darkness has come a wonderful brightness, a light so powerful that it could not be hidden behind prison walls, held back by prison bars...
