Woodcut Engraving of an extract of William Blake's "Milton" "And did those feet in ancient time...." with two landscape woodcut images, one signed in the impression print, the other initialled in the impression print. The lower woodcut promoting "Free Church Camps for Schoolboys". This design was produced in 1931 by Henry Clarence Whaite (British 1895-1978) on thin wove paper measurements: of the wove sheet 10.25 x 6.25 inches Condition report: In fair condition for such fragile paper, creases and folds to edges and corners, faintly but evenly toned, printed image remains sharp and clean. This would frame very nicely. Super example of Whaite's work, and one of several we are currently working on from a small collection of his woodcuts. Henry Clarence Whaite (1895-1978) was a cousin to the first Henry Clarence Whaite (1828-1912), a most respected landscape painter and contemporary of Turner. The later Mr Whaite, whose work we are featuring, studied under Henry Tonks at the Slade School of Fine Art London, and exhibited at the New English Arts Club and the London Group. Whaite became a teacher of art, and also produced his own paintings and engravings. His woodcuttings are considered to be amongst his most accomplished work.
