Artwork description:

A limited edition linocut print on paper, which portrays an historic fisherman's cottage in Arniston (also known as Waenhuiskrans), a village near the southernmost tip of Africa.
This low thatched cottage exemplifies the origins of the seaside village vernacular and is made with sustainable local materials. Its slightly uneven whitewashed walls reflect brilliantly in the sunlight and a curving chimney bolsters a gable end. The simple shapes, planes, textures, contrasts and shadows inspired this linocut composition. Printed with artists' quality oil-based black ink on robust acid-free paper. The image is approximately A6 size, on A5 paper.

It is sold unframed, but I now include a commercially-produced mount set, as shown. The inclusion of the mount set has increased the price of this item a little, but it protects the artwork during shipping and presents beautifully. You do not need to retain the mount if you don't like it - the artwork can easily be taken out of the mount for your own framing preference. I have included here some app-generated images showing the artwork framed, to help you visualise what it might look like.

Please note that I am willing to ship to most countries, so if the shipping profile for this artwork does not include where you are, please feel free to message me to make a request.
