Walter Hoyle Art
British, 1922-2000
Walter Hoyle was born in 1922. He trained at Beckenham School of Art and the Royal College of Art. At the latter, he was strongly influenced by Edward Bawden, one of Britain’s greatest linocut printers. Bawden had been commissioned by the 1951 Festival of Britain to produce a mural for the South Bank and chose Hoyle to assist on account of his great talent. Hoyle moved to Great Bardfield in Essex, becoming a part of the Great Bardfield group of artists of whom, in the post war era, probably Bawden and Kenneth Rowntree are the most famous. Diverse in style, they created figurative work in stark contrast to the abstract work of the St Ives artists at the opposite end of the country. The Fry Art Gallery in Saffron Walden was established to celebrate the works of the Great Bardfield group. Hoyle taught at St Martin’s School of Art from 1951–60, Central School of Arts and Crafts from 1960–64 and Cambridge School of Art from 1964–85, during which time he launched Cambridge Print Editions. His work is in the collections of the Tate Gallery, Victoria and Albert Museum, The British Museum, Kettle’s Yard and The Fry Art Gallery. The Royal West of England Academy holds a large oil painting of Trinity College Cambridge. Commercial commissions came from Shell, the BBC, the Post Office, the Folio Society, Christie’s Contemporary Art and Editions Electro. He wrote the book To Sicily with Edward Bawden.

Hoyle depicts King's College Chapel as both indomitable and delicate. The bold composition sees the chapel's spires surrounded by a fiery orange light against the black night of the background; at the same time, the western facade looks like it could have been cut from paper, or crafted from lace.

'Field' original abstract linocut in black by Wisconsin artist Schomer Lichtner
By Schomer Lichtner
Located in Milwaukee, WI
'Field' is an original linocut by Wisconsin-based artist Schomer Lichtner. The composition presents fields of flowers, trees and grasses below a cloudy sky, but rendered with Lichtner's quintessential abstract sensibilities. This print is one from a series that each depict abstracted subjects in black silhouette, taking pleasure in the materiality of the linocut technique. The free forms of the plants resemble the lyrical mid-century works of the French artist Henri Matisse, which combined with these material concerns demonstrate Lichter's modern sensibilities. The prints from this series are unusual because of how below the image, Lichtner also includes his Chinese seal and a linocut remarque of a cow, each of which act as an additional signature of the artist on the artwork.
Linocut in black and red on Permalife white wove paper
4.5 x 6 inches, image
11.5 x 8.75 inches, sheet
16.5 x 13.63 inches, frame
Signed in pencil, below image, lower right.
Edition 1/100 in pencil, below image, lower left.
Chinese signature stamp in red, below image, lower right.
Remaque of a cow in red, below image, lower right.
Permalife watermark to paper.
Framed to conservation standards in a shadow-box style mounting, using 100 percent rag matting, museum glass, and housed in a silver-finish wood moulding.
Overall excellent condition with no creases or discoloration.
Milwaukee artist Schomer Lichtner was well known for his whimsical cows and ballerinas and abstract imagery. He and his late wife Ruth Grotenrath, both well-known Wisconsin artists, began their prolific careers as muralists for WPA projects, primarily post offices.
Lichtner also painted murals for industry and private clients. Schomer was a printmaker and produced block prints, lithographs, and serigraph prints. His casein (paint made from dairy products) and acrylic paintings are of the rural Wisconsin landscape and farm animals. He became interested in cows when he and Ruth spent summers near Holy Hill in Washington County. According to David Gordon, director of the Milwaukee Art Museum, Schomer Lichtner had a tremendous joie de vivre and expressed it in his art.
Schomer Lichtner was nationally known for his whimsical paintings and sculptures of black- and white-patterned Holstein cows...
