Robert Tavener RE signed linocut of Cheltenham
Robert Tavener 1920-2004 large linocut of The Neptune Statue (2) Cheltenham
Signed in pencil
Limited edition print 8/30
Unframed
The Neptune Fountain, built in 1893, was designed by Joseph Hall and carved by Boulton & Sons. The fountain was probably modelled on the Trevi Fountain in Rome. It is a monumental statuesque piece depicting Greek god Neptune in a shell-chariot, being drawn by four sea-horses and heralded by conch-shell blowing merman. Neptune sits proudly, clothed in a mantle while clasping a Trident as a symbolic representation of his dominion over the seas, while the horses are depicted in motion, and the entire fountain is enclosed by sculpted balusters and vases filled with flowers.
Robert Tavener made a series of lithographs of Cheltenham.
Size: Paper - 73 x 58 cm
Image 52 x 43 cm
Condition: Some handling creases on the margins outside the image, which would be hidden by a mount. One small scratch in the trees on left side of the image, otherwise in good condition. A shaped (arched) mount which sits about 2cm outside the image would be an attractive way of displaying the picture within a frame.
Postage: Postage & packing is £6.50 within the UK. It will be sent rolled in a tube.
