John Wright - 'Goldfish Bowl No.2'

Artist: John Wright, RE

Title: 'Goldfish Bowl No.2' 

Description: An unframed but mounted original etching, signed in pencil by the artist lower right, dated there 1965, titled lower centre and numbered 2 from a small edition of 20 prints only. It came from a collection of the artist's work. The etching is in generally good condition for its age though there is some discolouration to the margins (away from the image) which is covered by the mount. By design, the etching isn't on an entirely flat surface as there are areas of significant relief where the printed image is raised from the surface of the paper. This is especially noticeable in the image of the goldfish bowl. It gives the etching impressive texture. The work is housed in a mount made for it some years ago.

Size: About 11.5 x 15.0 inches image size, 15.1 x 20.0 inches sheet size, and about 18.6 x 22.8 inches in its mount; the work is unframed.
