‘The signal is against holiday travel this Easter’
£420‘The signal is against holiday travel this Easter’
Born in Yarmouth, Reginald Mayes’ career began in the design studio of the Eastern Daily Press in Norwich. He moved to London where he designed water marks for paper manufacturers and studied life drawing at the Regent Street Polytechnic and Lithography under Gardiner, Clive. In the early 1930s he became chief staff artist at the London Midland and Scottish Railway public relations department, designing leaflets and posters. In the Second World War, Mayes produced a wide range of anti-travel and propaganda posters for the Railway Executive Committee. They discouraged railway travel with some humorous slogans such as ‘The signal is against holiday travel this Easter’. After the war he did freelance work before retiring to Kent where he relaxed painting landscapes.£420 -

17th century copper-engravings of Classical Sculptures
£295 each17th century copper-engravings of Classical Sculptures
These prints are from a series showing the antique marble statues from the collection of Vincenzo Giustiniana, published by Joachim von Sandrart. These statues were on display in the 'Galleria Giustiniana del Marchese Vincenzo Giustiniani'. Sandrart assembled a team of mostly Dutch and French artists to produce the engravings for the Galleria, including Theodor Matham, Michael Natalis, Renier Persin, Cornelis Bloemaert, Claude Mellan, and Francois Perrier. The work was published in Rome circa 1636. Galleria served as a record of the antiquities and statues of the famous Giustiniani art collection.

At the time of Vincenzo's death in 1637 he had amassed 600 paintings and 1800 ancient sculptures. Original copper-engraving, mounted and framed in black. Showing Marsyas.£295 each -

William Nicholson, London Types,
£245William Nicholson, London Types,
From a set of framed original woodblock prints, c1898. With original mounted poem relating to the image on reverse. "When William Nicholson designed his stylish 'London Types' in 1898 - that together with his 'Almanac of Twelve Sports' and 'An Illustrated Alphabet' were to make his reputation as a printmaker - his son Ben, who was to eclipse him entirely in the history of British Art through his Modernist works, was only five years old. While working within the culture of the British popular print, William Nickerson deliberately chose to use the coarse-grained side of the wood block in his wood cuts, in a style that owed more to Toulouse Lautrec and Japanese precedents than to native visual traditions - which give these prints an innovative quality, even as they might seem to be celebrating unchanging roles in British society. Although not strictly 'Cries of London,' some of these characters are familiar from earlier series of prints stretching back over the previous centrury and, recognising this, Nicholson portrays them as quaint curiosities from another age. In each case, the ironic doggerel by W.E. Henley that accompanied them poked fun at the anachronistic nature of these social stereotypes, through outlining the ambivalent existence of the individual subjects - whether the street hawker displaced in Kensington far from his East End home, or the aristocratic lady at Rotten Row challenged by her suburban counterparts, or the drunken Sandwich-man displaying moral texts, or the fifteenth generation Bluecoat boy at Charterhouse School in Smithfield now moved out to Horsham." - The Gentle Author.£245 -

Picasso ‘Mes dessins d’Antibes’ Lithograph,
£195Picasso ‘Mes dessins d’Antibes’ Lithograph,
Picasso's series "Mes dessins d'Antibes" is a fantastic study of Homeric, mythological Antibes (Greek Antypolis). He stayed barely three months in the southern Provencal port yet his output was prodigious. In what has been called Picasso's 'Age Of Renewal' he produced 23 paintings and 44 drawings. In these lithographs, first published in Paris in 1958, Picasso committed to print the austere and mysterious forms of the Centaur, the Nymph and the Faun that had so renewed his art in the Antibes.£195 -
