Ethelbert White, RWS

1891-1972

Lynmouth, Devon

Ref: 2009

Signed l.r.: Ethelbert White

Watercolour over soft pencil, 26 by 33 cm

 

Executed in the early to mid 1920s. White's watercolours of this date often relate to or echo his pioneering work as a wood engraver. There is no recorded wood-engraving of Lynmouth but there are some compositional and technical comparisons to his wood engraving of Portofino from 1924 (see Hilary Chapman, Ethelbert White 1891-1972, Primrose Hill Press, 2003, p.65, no.27).
