Details

Original linocut printed directly from the lino block by Sebastian Carter at the Rampant Lions Press, Cambridge in an edition of 500 numbered and signed copies on 225gsm mould-made all rag paper at St. Cuthbert's Mill, Wells, Somerset.

Christopher Brown's linocut The Sculler has been inspired by everyday scenes on the Putney embankment. Christopher was born in Putney in 1953 and has lived most of his life near the embankment, starting point of the annual Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race.

Trained at Hornsey and The Royal College of Art, Christopher is regarded as one of the leading graphic artists of his generation - particularly for his imaginative use of the linocut medium, in which he was much influenced by his long admiration for and friendship with Edward Bawden. His work is frequently seen in The Economist and on Penguin book covers. In 1999 his An Anamorphic Alphabet was published by the Previous Parrot Press.
