Artwork description:

A reduction linocut of a stone lantern standing next to a pine tree by the shore.
This image is inspired by a view from Miyajima island in Japan.

A reduction print is a relief print formed with layers of colour that are cut and printed from the same block, in this case, from lino. This is one of a small edition of 20 prints, all of which are printed by hand so small variations occur between them making each one truly original.

This work is printed with water-based, light-fast inks on Somerset Satin paper and has a beautiful matt finish. It is numbered, titled and signed at the bottom, mounted in a neutral colour and wrapped in cellophane to keep it clean. The mounted work will fit straight into a standard off-the-shelf 8x10inch frame.

Materials used:

Printed on Somerset Satin with water-based light-fast inks. Mounted to fit into a standard 8 x 10 inch frame.
