This stunning lithograph print by acclaimed British artist John Buckland-Wright (1897–1954) showcases his remarkable command of wood-engraving and ink drawing techniques. Signed, dated, titled, and numbered in pencil along the margin, the rare piece also bears the artist's monogram within the scene itself, located at the upper right corner.
A sublime representation of nude bathers, the composition is rich with luxuriant detail and imbued with subtle Cubist influences. Buckland-Wright's sensitivity to form and movement is on full display, offering a compelling balance between abstraction and naturalism.
Originally engraved for the Album de La Gravure Originale Belge and printed by Pichon, this impression is numbered 10 from a limited edition of 65. With generous margins and exceptional preservation, it stands as a superb example of Buckland-Wright's figurative artistry and craftsmanship in printmaking.
Elegantly housed in a contemporary wood frame with an ivory-toned matte and protected by acrylic glass, the presentation enhances the artwork's timeless appeal.
