Description

Stamp signed etching with aquatint, aside from the main edition of 30.

Drawn direct onto shaped copper plates, proofed and editioned in collaboration with Nigel Oxley, Master Printer at Kelpra Studio.

My own Bridge portfolio of etchings suggest a modest homage to an old friend and to those previous artists of a different time. The river s turn from Westminster, Big Ben to Blackfriars and St Paul s, on to Southwark, passing Whitehall Court (twin black towers) on the north side. It was here from Sidney Nolan s balcony apartment high at the centre of the building that we both marvelled on many delightful occasions at the river s twisted flow, a view embracing several bridges from East to West, a majestic sight to behold in any weather at any time of day or month. – Gordon House, Gordon House Editions 1982 – 1996.
