Claude Flight, British 1881-1955- A Square Meal, c.1937; linocut in colours on laid, signed and numbered 7/50 in pencil, image 25 x 30.4cm (framed) (ARR) Note: see The Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art, accession no. 2019.592.102, for another impression Claude Flight was one of the most prominent pioneers of printing with linoleum. Through his championing of a cheap and accessible approach to printing, Flight hoped to expose all classes of people to the world of fine art; he viewed the linoleum cut technique as truly neutral and equitable. Inspired by the industrial and geometric Vorticism, as well as Cubism, Flight created a unique style interested in the depiction of movement and speed, producing works with great fluidity and kineticism.
