RARE large format one colour lithograph on cream art paper that has then been hand coloured. The image measures 30" x 20" and there are ONLY 8 IN THE SERIES. The subject will appeal to all Mervyn Peake fans. This features a highly detailed and imaginative interpretation of the vile chef of Gormenghast Castle holding court in his vast kitchen, surrounded by his sprawling grey scrubbers. Any reader familiar with Peake's amazing trilogy will recall the eccentric vision of this room in words, and here it is in a brilliantly crafted print. Jpeg image is available, please ask. There were only 20 of these images, and very few are left. Superb. The artist has frequently exhibited all over the UK and other countries, but mostly in London, and frequently in the Royal Academy. Subtle colouring on the single printing enhances the atmosphere. This is an outstanding issue for all Peake fans but also for anyone who clollects modern lithographic prints. 0.0 0.0 0.0.
