Paul Nash ephemera including gallery catalogues etc
Paul Nash ephemera including Tate Gallery 1948 memorial exhibition private view invitation featuring a reproduction of The Sun and The Moon 1924 woodcut and programme for the exhibition, also gallery catalogues, prints etc Provenance: A fine private collection of pictures and ephemera relating to John and Christine Nash and their circle. By family descent from Pam and David Maresco Pearce. The couple moved to The Old Vicarage in Wormingford in 1956 when engineer David began working at Paxmans in Colchester. Pam began creating enamelled jewellery with the help of her husband and together they opened Traders in St John’s Street Colchester, selling contemporary art and design and decorative interiors. They moved in artistic circles and became firm friends with John and Christine Nash, their near neighbours in Wormingford. By coincidence David’s father Charles had been a good friend and early patron of John’s brother Paul. This collection is by family descent and represents a significant cache of previously unseen and undocumented material, of particular importance with reference to Christine Nash (nee. Kuhlenthal) who showed outstanding promise during her student days at the Slade School, but who’s artistic career became overshadowed by that of her husband, and whose work is now very scarce and rarely seen at auction.
