Signed and dated","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a beautiful etching and drypoint by one of Scotland's finest printmakers, Sir Muirhead Bone (1876 - 1953).  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMuirhead Bone was born in Partick, Glasgow, and trained as an architect. He attended evening classes at Glasgow School of Art and was self-taught as an etcher.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1901 he settled in London, where he quickly established an international reputation, selling prints for large sums. He produced nearly 500 prints, and was knighted in 1937. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis very accomplished print shows a view of the harbour at Lowestoft - and is entitled: Autumn Breeze. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a very fine velvety impression with lots of rich drypoint burr. It is in generally fine condition with no spotting, tears to the sheet etc. There are some slight ripples or faint white marks in the sky area, near the top centre.  This is only noticeable on close-up inspection, and the etching looks just fine when hung on your wall for display. This is reflected in my grratly reduced asking price. There is also a little crease to the paper to the lower left corner near the platemark, I have photographed this for you. Please check all my images to assess the condition and now nicely the etching looks on display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe price for this very fine drypoint by Muirhead Bone has been reduced to take into account these little issues that stops the print from being presented as totally perfect. The print had previously been retailed though the Fine Art Society in Edinburgh when they were based on George Street in the 1990s. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is pencil signed, lower right, as photographed. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrame size: 43 x 53 cm.
