Graham Dudley Page was born in 1905 at King's Lynn, Norfolk. He studied at the Slade School of Fine Art, winning a prize for wood engraving in 1926. 

He exhibited at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, the Society of Wood Engravers, the Royal Society of British Artists, the Redfern Gallery and also at the Walker Art Gallery Liverpool.

He died in 1948 at the young age of 43, and never lived to fulfill his artistic potential.  His prints are therefore quite rare. Examples of his work are held by the Norfolk Museums and Archaeological Service and four prints are held by the British Museum.

This is one of his finest wood engravings and was made in the 1930s - it shows the advertising signs on building around Trafalgar Square. In the foreground is one of Landseer's lions seen in silhouette at the foot of Nelson's Column. Advertising billboards are seen on the facade of the Grand Hotel - which in the 1930s formed the entrance to the Strand. I especially adore Page's depiction of all the little people rushing about in the distance and the old taxi cabs and their reflections on the wet pavements. 

The print is signed by the artist in pencil lower right and dated 1934. It is also edition numbered 21/50. There is also the title inscribed in pencil on the lower margin, as photographed. 

The print is in excellent condition. I have had it professionally re-framed with a new acid-free window mount and a simple black frame - all ready to hang on your wall. You won't find another impression quite as nice as this one. The sheet has never been stuck down onto any backing board - and have taken some images of the sheet before I put it into the framers. 

This is a fabulous view of Trafalgar Square in the 1930s - it is a magnificent Art Deco image - and looks fabulous on display. 

It will be sent to you with Royal Mail Next Day Special Delivery to make sure that it is fully insured in transit to you in the UK. This will cost about £10 and will be applied to your order at the checkout.
